Right now, millions of people in Uganda don’t have access to clean, safe drinking water. Without it, families face preventable diseases, children miss school, and women and girls walk hours each day just to fetch water. Every year, an estimated 3.5 million people die from water-related illnesses, most of them children. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Clean water changes everything: it brings health, dignity, education, and opportunity. With just one well, an entire community can begin to thrive.
About Wells of Life
Wells of Life is a 501(c)(3) non-profit faith-based organization whose mission is to provide rural Ugandans access to safe, clean water through the installation or restoration of sustainable borehole water wells and WASH (water, sanitation, and hygiene) educational programs. Thanks to our supporters, our wells and Healthy Village Programs are collectively serving more than 1,680,000 people.
Our Main Programs
Healthy Village Program
Clean water is only the beginning. The Healthy Village Program (Internationally known as WASH) is a 12-month transformation that equips an entire community with the knowledge, tools, and support to live healthier lives—now and for generations to come. From building toilets to making soap, from hygiene education to spiritual care, each part of the program works together to restore health, dignity, and opportunity.
What Makes Us Different
We Go Beyond Drilling Wells
Clean water saves lives, but it’s only the first step. We pair water access with sanitation, hygiene education, and health training so communities don’t just survive, they thrive.
We Focus on Long-Term Solutions
Our Healthy Village Program helps families learn how to stay healthy, keep kids in school, and prevent disease long after a well is installed.
We Maintain Our Wells
Through our GreenWell maintenance program, wells are professionally monitored and repaired so they continue serving communities year after year, not just when they’re new.
We Work With Communities
Local leaders and residents are partners in every project. Communities own their wells, care for and contribute to them, and access freely ensuring dignity, trust, and lasting impact.
