A Year Later: Money and Time Saved!

January, 2022

A year ago, your generous donation helped Kinuma Kyarugude Community in Uganda access clean water – creating a life-changing moment for Grace. Thank you!

Before this borehole well was completed, Kinuma Kyrarugude's people had to pay for water each time they fetched it. "It was expensive," explained Grace Katusiime, 26, a trader, "because we used to buy water from [the] public standpipe."

But now that there is a reliable source of clean, safe water nearby, Grace doesn't have to struggle as much.

"This water point has enabled me to always get clean water for both personal hygiene and other domestic work," Grace continued. "It has helped me to save some money because I no longer buy water for domestic use."
