Water, Health and Education:
A New Approach for Ugandan Schools
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”
Margaret Mead
The Plan
Following our stated goals, Quench and Connect will focus on projects that combine the needs for clean water with educational enrichment at schools. We aim to maximize the impact of our efforts by drawing on the linked benefits of clean water access and education of children in developing nations. Our intent is to provide funding, international support, and counsel from specialists, to village schools to improve the health of the children, increase and ensure their classroom attendance, and enrich the teaching environment at the school. In the context of global efforts that currently aid developing nations, this approach is novel.
