St. Michael’s Senior High School and Azeem-Namoa Senior High Technical in the Northern Region are grappling with a severe water shortage, affecting nearly 800 students and 40 staff members.

Azeem-Namoa relies on a single borehole, causing students to leave campus in search of water, often facing harassment and arriving late to class.

In response, the Centre for Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) has provided solar-powered, mechanized water systems to both schools.

Each system includes a 3,000-litre tank, ensuring a steady supply of potable water.

This intervention is expected to improve health, hygiene, and learning conditions for students and staff.

The schools expressed gratitude, highlighting the transformative impact of the project.
