Hi, I’m Andrea Zakaria and I’m fundraising for my Research Projet in Ivory Coast entitled "Rainy Season Challenges: Assessing the Access of Drinking Water and Sanitation Services," this study endeavors to illuminate the struggles faced by communities navigating the delicate balance between water accessibility and sanitation in the face of seasonal shifts.

Picture a community where the rain, a life-giving force, becomes a double-edged sword. As the heavens open up, the very source of sustenance transforms streets into rivers, complicating the everyday quest for clean drinking water. In these moments, the deficiencies in water and sanitation services become glaringly apparent, posing significant health risks to families already grappling with the complexities of informal settlements.

Your support for this research project is a lifeline for these communities. It is an investment in understanding the intricacies of their challenges during the rainy season, empowering researchers to develop sustainable solutions. From innovative water access points resilient to weather fluctuations to improved sanitation infrastructure that withstands the deluge, your contribution will help create lasting change.

Join us in this journey to make a difference. Together, we can turn the page for these communities, ensuring that the rainy season no longer symbolizes struggle but becomes a season of hope, resilience, and improved access to the most basic of human needs: clean water and sanitation. Your support is not just a donation; it's a pledge to transform lives. Let's stand together and navigate these rainy season challenges toward a brighter, healthier future for all.
