We believe giving a child clean, accessible water is the best way to help them transform their future. We’re focussed on being the best at just that, but we need your help to do even more. For over 30 years, passionate people like you have been partnering with Acts for Water to provide clean, accessible water delivered right in front of the homes of children in rural Uganda. It has changed everything for these communities and now we need you to join us so that together we can do even more.

The work isn’t just taps and pipes. 💧

In Kabatunda Town Council and Bwesumbu, our ACTS Uganda team is working hand in hand with Health Assistants, Village Health Teams, Masons, and Cluster Heads to support lasting behaviour change.

Continuous community engagement.
Household follow-ups.
Hygiene and sanitation sensitisation.

This is what sustainable development actually looks like — local leadership, daily presence, and the slow steady work of building healthier habits alongside the people who live them.

Cleaner, healthier, empowered communities. Built together. 💙

Teachers don’t just shape what kids know.

They shape what kids care about.

Walk4Water is a classroom program that puts the global water crisis in your students’ hands — literally.

They carry water. They feel the weight. And they raise funds that bring clean water to communities in Uganda.

On August 18, join Grade 2 teacher Jillian Jackman for a free 30-minute Watering Hole session — and see what this looks like inside a real classroom.

For teachers, educators, parents, and anyone who works with kids.

Water is not just a drink. 💧

It’s the foundation beneath almost everything a functioning day requires.

The food on your table. 
The clothes in your wardrobe.
The devices that connect you to the world.

Water made each of them — quietly, and without recognition.

That same truth holds in kitchens and clinics and classrooms across rural Uganda.

Where water is present and reliable, life organises itself around possibility.

Where it is absent, life organises itself around finding it.

We’ve written about virtual water, what it reveals, and what becomes possible when a tap arrives.

Clean water is a frontline defence against the spread of disease. 💧

In Uganda, our team is working across multiple regions — building taps, installing latrines, and strengthening hygiene practices that protect families every day.

In moments like this, that work matters more than ever.

“We have greatly improved following the introduction of that water that we badly wanted.”
— A registered midwife, Irimya Health Centre II 💧

In May 2026, the WHO declared the Ebola outbreak in the DRC and Uganda a Public Health Emergency of International Concern.

Kasese District sits directly on that border.

For nearly two years, our team has been working there — installing taps, building latrines, and strengthening hygiene practices in vulnerable communities. That work was never framed as “Ebola preparedness.” It was framed as what it has always been: building the conditions for healthier, more dignified daily life.

But today, those taps and toilets are doing something more.

They are a frontline defence.

Kasese borders the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Ebola is there. The WHO has deployed a mobile lab to the region.

But our team didn’t arrive last week.

For nearly two years, they’ve been in vulnerable communities across Kasese District — installing taps, building latrines, training families on handwashing, ending open defecation.

Daily work. Quiet work.

The kind of work that suddenly becomes the front line when a deadly disease shows up at the border.

Clean water. Safe sanitation. Good hygiene.

Three ordinary things that, right now, are protecting tens of thousands of people from one of the world’s deadliest viruses.

You made this possible before the crisis arrived.

Help us keep doing this critical work to protect thousands of Ugandans. Link in bio. 💧
