First project in India

In 2007 Water for Kids' jointly funded a water supply and new toilet block for 50 boys living in the Bishop Bexell Orphanage in Tamil Nadu, India with a church in Bath. A condition of our funding of £2,038 was that the boys are educated about hand washing, once the new facilities were available. Water for Kids is promoting a holistic approach to projects; sanitation and education are provided alongside clean water to maximise disease prevention.

“The children really find it useful and minimising their labour. They express their heartfelt thanks to Water for Kids. Myself, all the members of staff and teachers of the school where the children are studying also express their thanks to you.”
