World Water Day 2025

Many communities rely on surface water sources such as ponds, rivers, and lakes for their daily water needs. These water sources are often shared with livestock and are frequently contaminated by fecal matter, mudslide debris, and runoff from nearby latrines

We envision a future where communities thrive independently, empowered by the interconnected pillars of Health, Education, and Income. Our mission is to identify and support projects that simultaneously enhance these three critical areas, fostering holistic growth and self-sufficiency.

The impact of providing clean water though bore holes is a great example that fits in our vision:

• Health: It reduces Waterborne Diseases.
  It improves Sanitation, enabling better hygiene practices.
• Eduction: It increases School Attendance especially for girls, who
 often bear the burden of water collection.
  Schools with access to clean water report improved concentration and performance among students.
•  Income: Villagers, particularly women and children, save up to 3-4 
 hours daily previously spent on water collection. The time
 saved has led to the emergence of small businesses, boosting local economies.

Despite the successes, Laudara faces ongoing challenges:

• Funding: Expanding the project to more villages requires significant financial resources.
• Maintenance: Ensuring long-term functionality of boreholes through community training and support systems.
• Climate Change: Adapting strategies to account for changing rainfall patterns and groundwater levels.

Looking ahead, Laudara aims to:

• Install 10 more boreholes by 2027
• Implement rainwater harvesting systems in schools
• Introduce water purification technologies for households
