Our Impact in Uganda
As a registered NGO in Uganda, the Water 4 Kids International team oversees every aspect of the W4KI program including village identification, assessment and registration, drilling contract negotiation, drilling process supervision, government collaboration and community sensitization. Our team has assembled best practices for every aspect of the drilling process and community involvement to ensure life-saving boreholes will be open and fully-functioning for 30-50 years. Furthermore, W4KI, periodically conducts borehole evaluations to critique processes and community ownership to galvanize the effectiveness of procedures, installation materials and community involvement.
Since 2007, the W4KI division has drilled over 800 deep boreholes throughout 26 districts in Uganda.
Additionally, W4KI has rehabbed or modified dozens of wells and delivered hundreds of water filtration devices to remote villages including the island of Sigulu. For larger projects, W4KI also specializes in the development and construction of high-yielding production wells for hospitals, schools and campuses. With every water project installation, villages are given vital instruction on practical hygiene and sanitation practices and lessons on maintenance and operation.
