In the Bajoh district, education is extremely important amongst locals. Many parents in the area invest their life savings into providing a better education for their children. However, many students cannot commit too much time to their studies because of the water-related demands in their lives. Once students come home, many have to travel long distances to fetch water for their family’s cooking, cleaning, and drinking needs. In the classroom, many students miss class due to water-related illnesses, dehydration, or sanitation-related problems.  — Want to do something about it?
