$10,000 TOTAL COST

Projects Duration: February – April 2025

Kyabakuza and Nyendo areas,

Overview

Recognizing that clean water is a basic right, The LastCross spearheaded the drilling of two boreholes and the distribution of 100+ water filters in communities suffering from unsafe drinking water.

Alongside this, we ran sanitation workshops teaching over 400 villagers how to maintain hygiene at home and prevent waterborne diseases.

Outcome:

  • 2 villages now have constant access to clean water.

  • Cases of waterborne diseases dropped by 40% in three months.

  • 50 households built safe latrines after sanitation training.
