How provision of safe and clean water brought meaning to my life, Nakyerongosa, Uganda
Thu, 2012/01/26 - 20:10 —Miracle in my home through a water jar!
My name is Mrs. Kamugisha Rose and I am 63 years old. I stay in Busujja village in Nakyerongosa parish. I had three children with two girls and one boy. I stay with my three grandchildren aged 3 and 4 years respectively. In August 2011, COMASA started collecting information concerning safe water coverage, hygiene and sanitation status.
“I was honored to be one of the beneficiaries of the water jar. The water jar has completely changed my life. Before I got the water jar I was tired of begging water all the time from my neighbors. I never had energy and life was dull and meaningless to me. I had no idea that accessing clean safe water would drastically change my frame of mind. I want to say thank you for providing safe clean water to my family and loyalty to me. It feels good to have water at the doorstep in my home where I do not have to beg water any more."
Rain water harvesting and utilization has now become part of me and is sustainable in my family. Over the past years, I had no hope that life at one time will be of value to me since I had no clean safe water and I am now proud and very happy and hope to live longer. The rain water harvesting system is in my home and is easy to use and I can harvest water at any time. Even if am not at home, I find water in my water jar.
I do extend my thanks to COMASA for having constructed a water jar in my home, and do appeal to all well wishers to assist COMASA to be able to do what they did for my household for other homes too. Many people are suffering with getting clean water when a miracle of the water jar can solve this problem.

GRAPEVINE COMMUNITY SCHOOL: NEW LOOK WITH NEW PUPILS IN THE NEW YEAR.
Tue, 2012/01/17 - 18:40 —New look with new pupils in the New year.
Welcome and appreciate our efforts.
Grapevine Community School has made tremendous progress in the two years it has been in existence.We have been able to enroll a total of 252 pupils since we started this project.This is our third year now and we hope to make even bigger strides. The Grace of God has been and still continue to be with us in helping the poor children to access Quality Education.
Since we opened for our third year in January 3 this year we have admitted over 40 new pupils. Although some of our old pupils are loitering in the streets due to lack of fees and other poverty related problems occasioned by the high cost of living.We hope to allow them in class till parents get fees to pay if they report to school. They are still welcome despite the high fees balances.
We have changed the face of our school and below are some photos of our new look with the new pupils and teachers. Kindly go through them and make some remarks. WE feel very happy when we are appreciated in our progress however small it may be. We also welcome new neighbors to our project.
Thank you. Josephat Nyagwaya,
Grapevine Community School.
