Q & A

Q. How do you find the schools that need safe water?
A. Their principals know of our work and contact us.
Q. Where do indigenous schools get their water now?
A. Frequently, from polluted streams or contaminated wells. Absentee rates from sickness in some schools can go as high as 70%.
Q.How often do the tanks refill?
