IWFA - Clean water for the sewing school in Adyaka

Our last project took us to Uganda: the sewing school in Adyaka/Uganda received a hand pump. The village population also benefits from this.

+ Water Supply Ensured The construction took only ten days, then the hand pump for the sewing school of Chosen Generation Ministry Uganda was completed and ready for use. The villagers in Adyaka, Northern Uganda also benefit from it. Now the supply of sufficient clean water is ensured during the dry season. The water does not have to be boiled. This saves firewood and charcoal and thus protects the environment and the wallet. If less deforestation is needed, more rain will become groundwater again. Discover impressive reports from Adyaka in our project diary. + +
