RWHS Built at ADEPR Sholi

Reported by Rebero Jean d'Amour, Story written by Amanda Mulder

In May, Water Project volunteers built a Rain Water Harvest System on the ADEPR Sholi Church in Kigese village. This system will provide water to the church and neighboring households.

Location:
Country: Rwanda
District: Ngoma
Sector: Rukumberi
Cell: Ntovi
Village: Kigese
Solution:
We place these rainwater collection tanks at centrally-located churches, which shortens the walk for water and improves water quality. Churches sell the water at an affordable rate and use the income to maintain the system. Remaining funds are given to the poorest members of the community for school fees, health insurance, and other basic needs.
