Clean Water

in Uganda

Join Us in Transforming Lives with Clean Water

At Guiding Light Orphans, we believe that every drop can create a ripple of change. Help us bring the gift of safe, clean water to rural communities in Uganda.

In the heart of rural Uganda, many families lack access to clean water, facing the daily struggle for survival. Guiding Light Orphans is committed to changing this reality.

Our Project

Empower communities through sustainable clean water solutions. Your support enables us to provide life-changing access to clean water sources.

Why Clean Water Matters

Access to clean water is essential for preventing waterborne diseases. Contaminated water sources often harbor harmful microorganisms, parasites, and bacteria that can lead to illnesses such as cholera, dysentery, and various waterborne infections. Clean water is a fundamental component of personal hygiene and sanitation practices. It is necessary for activities like handwashing, bathing, and maintaining a clean-living environment, all of which are vital for preventing the spread of infectious diseases.


Access to clean water in schools promotes better health among students. It reduces the risk of waterborne diseases, allowing students to attend classes regularly instead of being absent due to illnesses caused by contaminated water. Girls often face challenges related to menstruation. Access to clean water ensures that girls have the facilities and resources needed for proper menstrual hygiene management, promoting gender equality in education. When schools provide clean water, it contributes to a healthier and safer environment, which can positively impact student retention rates. Students are more likely to stay in school when their basic needs, including access to clean water, are met.

Clean water is essential for agricultural activities. Communities with access to clean water can implement more efficient and sustainable irrigation systems, leading to increased agricultural productivity, food security, and economic empowerment for farmers. Women often bear the responsibility for water collection and household chores. Access to clean water reduces the time and effort spent on fetching water, empowering women to engage in income-generating activities, education, and community leadership.


Reliable access to clean water opens up entrepreneurial opportunities within the community. Small businesses such as water kiosks, agriculture-related ventures, and hygiene services can thrive, leading to economic empowerment at the grassroots level.

Voices from the Community


"This will be like a miracle, during the rainy season we walk on slippery slopes to get to the spring, and you can fall and break something if you are not careful. Now, will no longer walk that long distance to get water from the muddy water, and my kids will not fall sick anymore, and they will study well in school."

Rosemary Katusabe


"I am going to save money to help with some equipment repairs and will make sure that the community cleans around the water area. I also want to be part of the water user committee to make sure we maintain this gift. Thank you so much for thinking of us. I can't believe this is coming right here to our area."
