Help 2 Overcome Society

H2O works together with schools in the developing world helping them to set up and manage practical and sustainable sanitation and hygiene facilities. We work with individual schools together with teachers community leaders and government to determine their specific needs. Our sanitation blocks are specifically designed to cater to the children's needs. In particular we pay attention to 'girl friendly' schools with clean toilets (with doors) and water for washing hands. Each school has different needs based upon numbers ratio of boys to girls and access to city plumbing. We invest the money we raise into solving these problems. We also educate the children and teachers about the importance of hand washing and personal hygene. By creating 'Toilet Committees' we ensure that the toilets are maintained and looked after on an ongoing basis.
