PROBLEM

Seasonal water scarcity: Laindatang Village faces prolonged dry seasons, making access to clean water unreliable for daily life.

Economic burden: Families are forced to buy expensive water from tanker trucks.

Health risks: Limited water availability impacts hygiene, sanitation, and community health.

Educational disruption: Schoolchildren and teachers struggle with poor sanitation and a lack of clean water in the school environment.

Our Action

Surveyed and coordinated with local leaders, villagers, and technical teams.

Built a 110.000 liters semi-buried reinforced concrete water reservoir integrated with a rainwater harvesting system.

Facilitated community involvement through volunteer work, joint labor, and resource sharing.

Formed a Clean Water Committee of residents to manage the facility sustainably.

Scheduled a completion ceremony with the local government and the village community to promote ownership and awareness.

Our Goals

Ensure Reliable Access to Clean Water
Build a 110m³ (110,000-liter) reinforced concrete rainwater harvesting reservoir to serve the communities of Laindatang and Hambarita, where natural water sources are scarce or unavailable.

Improve Public Health and Hygiene
Provide clean water for daily needs—drinking, cooking, hygiene, and sanitation—reducing waterborne diseases and improving overall community well-being.

Maximize Rainwater Utilization
Install gutters and filtration systems to collect and purify rainwater from rooftops, making full use of the short rainy season to sustain needs during the long dry period (May–November).

Promote Environmental Sustainability
Encourage the use of rainwater as a climate-resilient and eco-friendly solution to long-term water access in remote rural areas.

Empower Local Communities
Involve local residents through the formation of a Clean Water Committee to manage and maintain the system, ensuring local ownership and sustainability.
