Description Program Srvc AccomBright Water Foundation Accomplishments-2023 Three (3) additional safe water education projects were launched in Atiwa West District, Eastern Region Ghana communities. An indigenous NGO adopted the BWF point-of-use safe water education model, using its training and education manuals and evaluation app in nine (9) district community. This brings the number of BWF active projects to seven (7). Thirty-five local residents were trained as safe water educators. These projects are now reaching about 60,000 residents (12,000 families). The results of these efforts in 2023 include more than 3,000 education meetings held, 125,000 gratis chlorine tablets dispensed, and 1,200 25-liter Veronica buckets (bucket, lid, tap) delivered to local households to be used as drinking water containers. Outcomes include more than 75% of educated households treating their drinking water with chlorine after one year, dramatic reductions in childhood episodes of diarrheal illness are reported, and similar reductions of school and workday losses are also reported.DescriptionProgramSrvcAccomTxt
