Clean Water for Schools in Baray
800 people reached
Our partner, AOX, has helped provide clean water for nearly 800 school children in Kampong Thom. AOX sponsored the deployment of ROAMfilter™ Plus systems in rural Cambodia, bringing clean water to hundreds of children, educators, staff and family members across two schools in Baray District. Clean drinking water leads to decreased illnesses and absence from school. These children now get what every child deserves: health, happiness, and the opportunity for an education.
Thank you AOX for helping to give these children the best chance in life! |
Cambodia Community Development
200 people reached
WAH Foundation and Wateroam have joined forces to bring clean water and health education to rural communities in Kampong Chhnang Province. Roughly half of the rural population in Cambodia does not have access to safe drinking water, which not only increases water borne diseases and poor standards of living, but also significantly hinders healthcare services. Since July, we’ve installed our ROAMfilter™ Plus in four community health centres providing clean water to 200 people each day! Our collaboration allows healthcare workers to provide safe, quality treatment and ensure the smooth recovery of their patients. Additionally, health centre staff and villagers living near these health centres now have access to safe drinking water that they can bring home. Community development through demonstrations, education workshops, and maintenance training ensures the long-term sustainability of the project, and this is only the beginning! Together with WAH Foundation, we aim to install our filtration system in 42 health clinics within the province, bringing clean water to thousands living in the area.

Sustainable Water Project in Cambodia90 households reachedThe New Life Foundation’s (NLF) Sustainable Water Project (SWP) in Cambodia does more than provide access to clean water; it helps to create an environment of self-sustainability among rural villages where opportunities are limited. Individuals, households or church communities involved in the production, packaging, and distribution of safe drinking water have created microbusinesses to provide water at affordable costs and earn an additional income. In March 2019, Wateroam’s Champion, NLF, visited a church in Trapang Vihea village to install a water filter, water tank and piping which resulted in approximately 40 children and their families having access to clean water. Through its small business, the church has been able to provide a further 50 households with safe drinking water each month.

Cambodian Village School320 residents reachedA ROAMfilter™ Ultra was delivered to a school in a rural area in Cambodia. ROAMfilter™ Ultra filters water from a nearby stream which has water that was previously not drinkable as it was muddy and plagued with pathogens. Due to the lack of infrastructure and pipelines, the students do not have access to drinkable water. After installing the ROAMfilter™ Ultra, the school is now able to have clean drinking water which is directly purified from the stream. With the ROAMfilter™ Ultra, the school can finally tap on a reliable localized water source for drinking water. We are privileged to be part of this journey in bringing clean water access to these people. The unit is currently serving over 300 students and 20 teachers who rely on water from the pond, well, river and rain collected through the gutters for drinking, cooking, and washing.
