18,448 in 2015

In 2015; 18,448 households benefited from fresh water sources set up by DWU with support from our partners and donors, with over 11.5million rural Ugandans lacking access to clean water sources; this number is but a drop in the bucket.

At DWU we aim to increase this number, and with your help we believe this is achievable with a donation of as low as $1 a month, you and 299 other people can give a well to 50 households in Uganda today…
