Water and Sanitation Program
Water is a basic need for all communities and essential commodity for all living things. Being a region adjacent to the lake, all the water for cooking, washing, agriculture, and even for drinking is fetched from the lake.
There has been a plant called water hyacinth that covers water surface and one must go almost 40 feet through the thick hyacinth growth.

People around these villages do not have access to any type of improved sanitation facility.
The most affected are the children dying due to diarrhea diseases. living in extreme conditions of poverty with no proper sanitation services, access to sufficient safe water and sanitary disposal facilities is limited.
Lack of hygiene is very high as children and even their parents go in the bush to release themselves. You could imagine a barefooted child go to the same spot everyday and some have even marked there positions.
The community members are involved in water conservation initiatives e.g. elimination of water hyacinth to create more room and accessibility to clean lake water. With a 920 and 3000 litre water tanks at the community resource center, children get fresh well treated water for drinking.
