Help Keep Kids Healthy
Clean water in schools lays the foundation for students to practice good hygiene, which is essential for preventing food contamination and the spread of diseases. Splash works with schools to incorporate hygiene education and handwashing initiatives into their curriculum, teaching students about the importance of handwashing before meals and after using the toilet. By building healthy hygiene habits, we can improve health outcomes among students.

"What Splash has done in our school is a great opportunity for children like me who have no chance to go to a private school that has better facilities. I feel so proud that I am a hygiene ambassador — I like to put soap in the stations and guide the children on where to drink and wash. The training I received from Splash was awesome. I have passed the lessons on to my mom and my younger sister as well. The games are interesting and educational. I want a humanitarian organization like Splash to help all kids improve their life."
You can keep little hands clean
You can help make sure kids stay healthy by building healthy habits and washing their hands with soap.
Together, we can provide kids at school with handwashing stations designed with them in mind! Splash stations are made so that kids actually want to use them. They are big enough for several kids to wash their hands at one time (fun!), they have mirrors so kids can see themselves, and the bright orange material is easy to clean so they stay inviting.
Your gift today can help provide not only handwashing stations, but education and fun activities that help kids build habits that keep them healthy.
A study from London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine found a 17% decrease in respiratory illness in Splash schools, compared to schools where Splash had not yet begun working. Handwashing also increased by 22% in Splash schools. You can help bring these programs to even more kids!

"I did not realize how much more I could learn from their trainings. The trainings were not only informative, but also engaging and interactive. They helped me and my colleagues to adopt a positive attitude towards handwashing and to promote it among our students. The trainings also emphasized the importance of handwashing at home, not just at school, and encouraged us to share this message with our families and communities. As a result, I have noticed a significant improvement in the hygiene and health of both staff and students."
