Food & Clean Water

Children gather water from an AYA/USAID sponsored well

AYA runs a farm in Kenya that provides food to orphanages and supplements school feeding programs.  The farm not only provides thousands of children with a daily meal; the organizations helping them are able to improve their impact by using money typically spent on food, to pay teachers and buy textbooks, medicine, and other necessities.

We also construct wells and other clean water projects.  We recently completed construction on 30 new clean water projects throughout Uganda, which were funded by a grant from USAID. In addition to providing access to clean water to almost 10,000 people, AYA also provides health education and hygiene training to community members and local schools.
