From 2022 to 2023, Malawi faced the deadliest cholera outbreak in its history. This outbreak was a direct result of the widespread lack of clean water and proper sanitation. We partnered with three local organizations to conduct live-saving educational seminars. We provided essential supplies such as chlorine, soap, gloves, buckets and bilingual flyers to communities, schools and health centers. In addition, our team built latrines and installed tippy-taps for handwashing. We also actively encouraged those eligible to get the cholera vaccine. We conducted 244 educational seminars, benefiting approximately 150,000 people. 24830 0 0 MKAIKA SECONDARY SCHOOL. Installed 10,000 ltr solar water system for school and surrounding community. Project included drilling a new borehole, double steel tank-stand fabrication, (2) 5,000 ltr water tanks, and integrating all solar components (pump, panels, cables, pipes, taps). Implemented water to multiple taps, including boys and girls toilets, the laboratory, the girls hostel, teacher housing and newly constructed shower facility for the girls(they previously used buckets). For many, this was their first-ever experience with running water. In addition, we conducted menstrual hygiene education seminars, and distributed reuse-, able pads and soap. The schools attendance increased from 600 students to 900 students, thanks to its improved water access. 900 students served + 200 villagers 21592 0 0 DZALEKA REFUGEE CAMP.
