Nsangwa 1 Village, Mpigi District, Uganda

“In Nsangwa 1 village, access to clean water was once a distant dream. For years this community struggled with accessing clean and safe water. With funding secured from MSHED in partnership with Last Night a DJ Saved my life Foundation and Drop4Drop, construction of a water source commenced. Community members volunteered their time, contributing labor and resources to expedite the project’s completion. This builds a source of ownership for the community members. Finally, after months of diligent effort and unwavering commitment, Nsangwa 1 village celebrated the inauguration of its new clean water source.  The impact was immediate and profound: families no longer feared waterborne diseases, children’s attendance in school improved, and the overall quality of life soared.”

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.
