In many third world countries, children have to walk long distances each day to provide their families with water. This will cost those children priceless time in and out of the classroom. Often, the water they fetch is contaminated and then causes them to contract various illnesses, which not only carries the risk of death but also keeps them from school.

Normally, the people of an entire village will benefit from Water, Sanitation & Hygiene (WASH) projects but more specifically - the projects are implemented for the needs of children and teachers at schools.

Each WASH project provides one school with latrines (as needed), a bore-hole well with motorized or hand pump (depending on access to electricity), a water storage tank, filters and water taps that act as drinking fountains. In addition, teachers and the school children are provided with education and curriculum on proper sanitation and hygiene practices along with education on how to properly use and maintain their clean water solutions. This ensures that the generations to come will be happier and healthier as they too educate their children on the importance of clean water.
