Water Distribution Initiative – Quenching Thirst, Nurturing Health
Introduction
In rural Odisha, where water scarcity affects daily life, our Water Distribution Program serves as a lifeline for marginalized communities. We prioritize areas where women and children walk miles to fetch drinking water, often contaminated and disease-ridden.
Our Approach
Community Needs Assessment
- Collaborate with local leaders to identify high-need villages in Dhenkanal district.
- Test water sources for purity and contamination levels.
Sustainable Solutions
- Distribute 20-liter water cans to 500+ families monthly during summer.
- Install community water filters in partnership with local anganwadis.
Health & Hygiene Workshops
- Conduct training on water purification methods (boiling, chlorine tablets).
- Distribute ORS packets during cholera outbreaks.
