The water system providing clean water is failing. One huge water tank has already crashed from its tower (thankfully, no one was hurt), and the second main tank sits precariously on an unsafe platform (see photo above).

Without immediate action, hundreds of students and community members will lose access to clean, safe water. The alternative water source is far away in a swamp, providing water contaminated by cow dung.

A little background— the water project was funded by a Rotary Club Global Grant in 2014; since then, the surrounding neighborhood has developed rapidly, and the school population has gone from 400 to nearly 800.  Engineers have advised the remaining elevated tank could fail at any moment—Heavy April rains make the repairs even more urgent.

You can prevent this crisis by going to our Donate page and giving a special gift to help repair the water towers and replace the critical tanks.
