Some community details (provided by our in-country partners)

Wako Primary School is a small but vibrant school in Kwali Area Council, FCT Abuja. Despite the dedication of teachers and pupils, the school faced a pressing challenge: lack of reliable access to safe water. Before Lifewater's intervention, pupils frequently struggled with dehydration during school hours. The nearest water source was far and often unsafe. This forced many students to leave their classrooms to fetch water, disrupting lessons and compromising their health. Thanks to timely support from Lifewater, safe and accessible water was installed within the school grounds. This transformation has ensured that children stay hydrated throughout the day and created a healthier, more focused learning environment. Today, the entire Wako Primary School community enjoys safe water. Lifewater's contribution has truly empowered the school to nurture young minds with dignity and wellbeing.
