The Alaka community primary school, is in alebtong district of northern Uganda, in the akura sub-count. The total number of pupils before the well was installed was just 250 pupils, but we fully expect the number of pupils to increase dramatically now that the well is working.
Before the well the nearest water source was an animal dam kilometer away. It is a huge health risk to drink from the same water that animals stand in and drink from and the children at this school were all very sick from drinking this water.
