IRS990/Desc0Between July 2020 and June 2021, we continued our work in Rwanda, Africa. In the sectors of Kibungo, Rilima and Rukumberi we reached at least 17,903 people with access to clean water. We provided in-depth health and hygiene training and household filter systems to 1,508 families, built and distributed 8 community filters to schools and health clinics, and constructed 9 rainwater harvesting systems at local churches. Our volunteers in Rwanda also visited 2,323 families that have previously received filters to reinforce health & hygiene behaviors and ensure their filters are still working. We also performed maintenance checks on 87 community filters and 139 rainwater harvest systems.
