Carlow University students are the driving force behind efforts to drill a well in Kumi, Uganda. They learned about the conditions in Foundations of Special Education - a designated Service Learning course - and decided to put their efforts to transform the lives of thousands of people.
Carlow University, founded by the Sisters of Mercy, promotes the development of projects that 'serve the under-served.' The Grace Ann Geibel Institute, (part of Carlow's Social Justice Institute) supports the faculty who oversee this project.
For the past 12 years we have worked with local partners to determine the best approaches that produce significantly effective outcomes to improve lives. Our goals to increase access to education, reduce disability rates, improve health and strengthen families are realized by providing access to clean water.
We take it for granted. They know how precious this gift is.
