Background
At St. Ignatius School the last four months there were a significant number of absences among the school's students due to colds, coughs and diarrhea. During this period, the number of children who became ill at school was alarmingly high. Many children are prone to waterborne diseases such as diarrhea, typhoid, jaundice, dysentery, etc. With regard to this high incidence of disease, parents and teachers were suspicious of the water from the school well from the beginning. It was concluded that the main cause of the disease was due to the unprotected supply of drinking water.
Objectives
In the first phase of the project a room is built for the installation and protection of the purifier and the water supply points.
In the second phase, the purchase of the purifier and its installation is carried out. At the same time, the water supply points (taps) are built.
Reverse osmosis is a water purification technology by which a high percentage of dissolved and undissolved contaminants are retained (up to 99% retention of dissolved salts).
Milestones
This project will provide 490 people with access to drinking water.
