Helping to bring in the water harvest, in Uganda. A woman, living in a village in the Kyotera area of Uganda, has had her enterprise and determination rewarded by news of a grant to help her community retain supplies of clean water. After surfing the internet, she discovered the charity, Wilmslow Wells for Africa, and she swiftly sent off an application for help to fund 15 rainwater catchment tanks for a community of 30 families. Teo Nalubega, chairperson of the Mitukula Women’s Development Association, said in her e-mail that the tanks were “part of a project to improve on the general health situation of the rural women in Mitukula, and that of their families, through access to clean, safe water, (plus) sanitation and hygiene facilities.” Teo added that, in a local village, people had only one water source and that a woman could expect to queue for up to five hours a day to collect a jerrycan of polluted water. She described diseases like malaria, cholera, typhoid and HIV/AIDS as being “rampant” with the nearest health centre being about 15 kilometres away.
