SayPro, in partnership with the United States Peace Corps, is facilitating access to clean water and sanitation in schools to improve health and learning outcomes for children. SayPro recognizes that lack of safe water and proper toilets can lead to disease, absenteeism, and dropouts, especially among girls. Through infrastructure development, hygiene training, and community engagement, SayPro ensures that schools become safe, clean, and supportive learning environments.
SayPro installs water tanks, boreholes, and handwashing stations while also repairing existing sanitation facilities. Peace Corps volunteers assist with logistics, maintenance planning, and monitoring progress. SayPro conducts hygiene education sessions for students and staff, emphasizing handwashing, menstrual hygiene management, and waste disposal. These lessons are reinforced with colorful posters and fun activities. SayPro believes clean water and sanitation are foundational rights that directly impact education, health, and gender equality in school communities.
SayPro includes students in the process by forming hygiene clubs that monitor cleanliness and educate peers. Peace Corps volunteers help train club leaders and organize awareness campaigns. SayPro also involves parents and community leaders to support maintenance and sustainability of the infrastructure. Schools become demonstration hubs, inspiring nearby villages to improve their sanitation standards. SayPro ensures that everyone has a role in building healthier learning environments—from students to school administrators.
SayPro envisions a world where every child can attend school without worrying about unsafe water or poor sanitation. With Peace Corps collaboration, SayPro is creating environments where children thrive academically and stay healthy. These projects represent SayPro’s core values of dignity, empowerment, and sustainability—turning every school into a safe space for growth, inclusion, and opportunity.
