ABOUT THE PROJECT

Divine Waters Uganda has been a partner with Ryan’s Well since 2003, and are very experienced in all of the components involved in organizing and training a self-sustainable community. From the beginning of every project, communities are involved in all aspects of planning, site selection, drilling and implementation in order to facilitate ownership of the water project. Divine also works closely with local government District water officers in both site identification and WASH (Water, Sanitation and Hygiene) training to ensure the most vulnerable communities in Northern Uganda have access to safe water. This project will provide approximately 7,000+ people with access to potable water.
