Over the past five years, Uganda Village Project (UVP) has been striving to make safe water an accessible reality for residents of Iganga District. They are working not only to increase the number of shallow wells in the district in order to cut down on water collection time, but they are aiming to eliminate water contamination altogether. Through promoting a comprehensive safe water education program, which highlights various parts of the “safe water chain,” UVP works to teach villagers how to keep safe water clean. Please help ChooseAneed and Uganda Village Project continue to fund these wells! Click on this link GPS Well Locations to view 14 of these wells via GPS coordinates on Google Maps.

The Ghana Health and Education Initiative (GHEI) began implementing a hand washing behavior education campaign in 2009. However, in order to promote community ownership of the program GHEI plans on installing ‘Choose-a-need funded’ POLY-TANKS within community institutions, most notably public schools. A Poly-Tank is a large water storing mechanism with a tap that eliminates the need for daily water fetching. It collects rainwater and then stays filled most of the year. Completed!
