Clean Water Access in Rural Ghana

I am raising funds to support a project that I care a lot about – which is clean water access in rural, Northern Ghana. In rural Ghana, many people do not have reliable access to clean water. Therefore, Engage Globally is raising funds to go towards rainwater catchment and hand washing stations, as water-borne illnesses are common. I care about water accessibility due to my environmental studies courses, where I learned about water scarcity. I am passionate about the fact that clean water is a basic human right and every individual should have reliable access to water for both drinking and sanitation. 

My personal goal is to raise $600 to fund about 5 hand-washing stations. The cost of one station is around $120, and we strive to have 5 hand-washing stations per community, which leads to the $600 goal to support one of our partner communities.
