Ogom Telela School in Ogom Telela village, the the Pader District of Uganda faced a serious challenge with access to safe water. Students and staff had to walk 2 kilometers to fetch water from a well at a nearby health center, disrupting daily routines and impacting education.

Drop in the Bucket, drilled a borehole well on the school premises, providing a sustainable and reliable source of clean water. This new infrastructure eliminates the need for long journeys and ensures safe water is always available on-site.

With access to clean water, the school community now enjoys improved convenience, better health, and a stronger focus on education, fostering a more productive learning environment.
