Diocese of Same – Safe water for SAME

Fondazione SAME supported the Diocese of Same in the construction of 8 drinking water wells, 6 in the rural villages of Ndevesi, Mangulai, Mbono, Ruvu Marwa, Kirya, Karamba and 2 in the centre of Same, Contributing to ensure access to safe and clean water.

Each well is equipped with a solar-powered system, including a pump and a 53,000-liter storage tank, ensuring continuous and autonomous operation.

The project relies on the active involvement of local communities, with the establishment of management committees in charge of overseing and maintaining the proper functioning of the water infrastructure.

In 2026 the construction of a new well, also powered by a solar system, is planned to serve the Same Health Centre.
