Clean Water
Boarding school students rely on safe, clean water for drinking, cooking, and daily hygiene. Without it, children face illness, fatigue, and difficulty focusing on their studies. Providing reliable access to clean water ensures a healthy, safe environment where students can learn, grow, and thrive.

“On a trip to Ethiopia, I visited a school supported by Child Impact International. While I was there, I noticed none of the children had water bottles. All morning they sat in class, thirsty, unable to focus. I asked the teacher where they got water, and he pointed to a distant spring. I walked and came across a small muddy pool, green with algae, where cows, donkeys, and children all drank side by side. How could they concentrate on lessons, dream of a future, or even stay healthy when their most basic need was not met? The truth is, education alone isn’t enough. Without clean water, children face sickness and exhaustion. Water should not be a luxury; it is a lifeline we must help provide. With your help, children in Legedadi and elsewhere can have safe water to drink, strength to learn, and hope for tomorrow.”
