Since 1972 ACTS has been bringing clean water to villages in Southwestern Uganda. Our water projects include community education in the areas of health and sanitation and environmental issues. We partner with the Church of Uganda (Anglican) and have developed healthy working relationships with various local agencies as a means of providing villagers with access to resources in health (specifically HIV/AIDS testing and education) and sustainable agriculture initiatives. In recent years we have also developed Mutual Benefit Societies for widows who have limited means to support themselves and their children. Through co-operative farming, animal husbandry and handicrafts these women work together to achieve the financial means to support themselves and contribute to their communities. We have enjoyed support from CIDA in 3-1 matching funding for these projects as well as funding for Canadian youth interns to work in their field of expertise to serve these communities.
