Clean Water for the Community

Ride 4 a Woman was set up in 2009 and during those early years the team witnessed terrible suffering in the Buhoma community due to water-borne diseases including Cholera.

Clean water was essential for the community to stay safe, healthy and productive and so in 2015, thanks to the substantial donations and efforts of two long-term overseas supporters of a charity, investment in a new Safe Water initiative took place.

Six Bio Water filters and one electric powered filter were installed and over 1000 Jerry cans of 10L each were distributed across the community. 

Today, over 150 liters of clean water are provided every day and water-borne disease is no longer a major issue in the community. Everyone in the community is free to come to Ride 4 a Woman and fill their plastic jerry cans to take safe drinking water to their homes.
