Background
From Butare Health Center III, through the Sisters of Our Lady of Good Council, we work to break down the barriers that make it difficult for the population of the Buhweiju district to attend hospitals that allow them to receive the required health care.
Thanks to its work, Butare Health Center III is today positioned as a reference hospital in Butare. The data show the monthly increase of patients and the good service that is being offered.
In 2014 and 2015, internment rooms, dispensary, consultation rooms, laboratory and pharmacy were built. More than 20,000 people are treated annually in Butare hospital, which has caused the well to be insufficient and it has been decided to collect rainwater in tanks for later use.
Objectives
A practical and economical solution is the installation of more rainwater collection tanks. In order to do this, the new constructions being carried out in the hospital would be used, where four 5000 l. tanks would be placed up to a total of 20,000l.
Being new buildings ensures that water collection is efficient and clean. In this way, the hospital would have an additional 20,000 litres of water.
Milestones
This project has resulted in 2,000 people now having access to drinking water.
