Our Water and Sanitation Hygiene (WASH) in Schools Project has several goals. In addition to improving bathroom facilities and training the community on maintenance and the importance of practicing bathroom hygiene, WASH also focuses on making safe drinking water accessible to students in rural schools.
Since WASH has initiated, we have partnered with 10 rural schools to improve sanitation facilities, provide drinking water, and train students on the importance of healthy hygiene habits.
"The high temperatures, physical education class, and the overall energy it takes to be a kid leads students to drink tap water without realizing that it is not safe to do so" said Pablo, "it’s very important to provide students with a safe source of potable water so they can hydrate without getting sick" he added.
Let’s celebrate the successes we’ve made towards ensuring that every child has access to safe drinking water--water that keeps them hydrated, healthy and ready to learn. We at Pueblo a Pueblo promise to continue working with rural communities to create healthy environments for students. Let’s raise a glass to clean drinking water!
