In Cambodia, schools in remote provinces have poor water supplies and sanitation which discourages children and teachers from attending. This gift helps provide schools and teachers’ houses with latrines, pump wells and water tanks which not only increases attendance but also teaches children about hygiene and water conservation.
For the children of Kampong Pang village in Cambodia, the only school with water and toilets is hours walk away from their homes. So many children simply can’t go.Your gift of water for a school will help build latrines, a pump well and a water system in remote village schools to ensure children can go to class – and stay there! “We have water collection tanks in our schools now, we can use it for toilets and clean water for drinking. We want to do the same in other villages.” Sam Sovanna, Oxfam Australia Country Manager, Cambodia
