Persons with disabilities face hardships to fetch drinking water from Neighborhood, because lack of own Hand Pump in the house. If they donated Hand Pump with installation labour charges, he/she will get rid of fetching pure clean drinking water from far-away. Persons with disabilities led houses are found in each Village but their living style is very poor bcz of their disability & poverty. They have limited earning resources to meet the needs. Water is life so NDF decided to provide it.
Challenge
People with difficulties in walking, seeing, and with multiple disabilities which included both physical and learning difficulties, often could not get to water sources or use water facilities. Obstructions on pathways to the water facility and around the immediate vicinity of the water facility made it difficult to get to the water facility. They have no water source accessible Hand Pump at their Home, they face hardships to fetch water, they need own accessible Hand pump at their own home.
Long-Term Impact
As accessible Hand Pump is installed with all required accessibility needs, the potential long term impact will be witnessed that the family of person with disabilities will be able to access lean drinking water at their home for drinking & WASH purpose. The family will access WASH facility to live their life with dignified manners.
