Two things characterize our work: We act decisively. And we make our customers' lives easier by creating new opportunities. This determination is reflected in the fact that we act with courage and maximum efficiency. We act simply and with commitment. Also in Uganda.
In Uganda, women and children often have to walk for hours to fetch water, meaning they have to make do with just a few liters. Cooking and drinking take priority, while personal hygiene and watering the gardens are often neglected. This leads to diseases and poor harvests. However, thanks to the construction of rainwater tanks, many villages now have clean water. This is a relief for children in particular: the long daily walks are no longer necessary. This gives them the opportunity to attend school regularly again.
The adults benefit from educational programs on hygiene and health. They learn how they can improve their living conditions in a simple and sustainable way, for example by storing water properly and using sanitary facilities. These changes improve their health and quality of life and make the community more resilient to health challenges.
