Lubugumu 1 Village, Mpigi District, Uganda
DONATED BY THE CUSTOMERS OF COASTAL FOOD SERVICE AND ESS THROUGH PURCHASES OF CASES OF WATER
Nakamate Joyce who lives in Lubugumu 1 village gave birth seven months ago and narrates,
“My husband had to get water from a pond so that I could bath and clean myself after birth. The water was dirty and not fit for me and my baby but we had no option. I could see things settling to the bottom of the bucket. I had to drink the same water. I am delighted as a mother that Coastal Food Services and ESS have constructed for us this clean source of water. My baby will grow up healthy and strong. Thank you Drop4Drop for making this dream a reality.”

This project was undertaken as part of our campaign of projects that actively reduce carbon emissions. This project helped the community save their much needed wood which was previously being burnt daily to boil water. This project has also eliminated the many thousands of hours previously spent on walking to collect water.
