As part of a larger system, provide a school tap stand connected directly to piped water. New boreholes are drilled to 1,000+ feet (or existing boreholes rehabilitated) and equipped with a submersible pump powered by solar panels. A 50,000 liter central reservoir tank is constructed followed by installation of 4-6 miles of underground pipelines to carry water to a tap stand providing drinking water to all students. The project also includes sanitation and hygiene training as well as construction of toilets when needed.
