Last year, Lifeline completed construction of a piped water system in Teboke — a community of about 1,100 people located in Apac District, Northern Uganda.

Just outside the town of Apac in a district by the same name, I met David Otim who, in March of this year, joined our drip irrigation initiative.

Last year, Lifeline began implementing a WFP-sponsored project involving the installation of fuel-saving institutional stoves in 63 primary and secondary schools in Uganda’s Karamoja region. 

In June 2024, Lifeline conducted training sessions in preparation for drilling a new borehole, emphasizing the importance of proper sanitation and hygiene practices. The training covered essential topics such as constructing latrines, local dish dryers (Tandaro), and hand washing facilities.

Bua Charles and his community now have access to clean water. At 80 years old and resident of Apoke, Otuke district, Bua is overjoyed to see his community having access to clean water.
