Since we began operations in 2008, Water For People Rwanda has delivered clean water and dignified sanitation to thousands of people across three districts.
We've Achieved Incredible Progress in THE THREE Districts.

59 schools were supported with eco-toilets, and these schools now use their human manure to fertilize school gardens. Some schools sell human manure to neighbors for use on their farms
