Challenge
In Adaklu Kpetsu, families must collect drinking water several times each day from a dirty open stream shared with animals. This unsafe water causes frequent illness, including intestinal worms and waterborne diseases, especially among children. Students miss school because they are sick, while families are forced to spend their limited income on medical care instead of food, education, and basic needs.
Solution
This project will provide a safe, reliable water source directly in the community. With clean water close to home, families can stay healthy, children can focus on school, and time spent fetching water can be invested in education, work, and community life.
Long-Term Impact
Access to clean water will reduce disease, improve school attendance, and strengthen family well-being. Over time, this will foster healthier, more educated, and economically resilient families-breaking the cycle of poverty and building a stronger future for the entire community.
