Adyaka Trading Centre & Abwong Village, Uganda

Adyaka TCThis small community of 60 people is transformed weekly when they hold a market every Tuesday drawing about 5,000 people. The only source of water had been an unprotected water area that is far too small and unclean. This area has been ravaged by the LRA as well as AIDS, leaving hundreds of orphans.

This hand pump well will help prevent stomach aches and improve health and work efficiency. There was a two hour wait in line for the unclean water before. Community members are also interested in selling water to use it for income generating projects.

 --In partership with JOY Drilling and Lifewater International (LI)
