In a landmark ceremony, Salam Charity and Salam TV, in collaboration with All for One and Ntungamo Woman MP, Hon. Bata Kamateneti, initiated the construction of a modern water facility in Nyarwanya village, Rubaare town council, Ntungamo district.
This initiative addresses the longstanding scarcity of clean water in the area, where residents have been forced to share water sources with animals from a local dam. Local leaders expressed their gratitude for the project, underscoring the importance of access to clean water for the community's health and well-being.
Hon. Bata Kamateneti encouraged the local population to take ownership of and maintain the facility with care. She reaffirmed her commitment to collaborating with the government and utilising her local and international connections to promote development in the Ntungamo district.
Hajji Karim Kaliisa, Managing Director of Salam TV and Salam Charity, reiterated the organisation’s dedication to supporting development initiatives. He highlighted Salam Charity's core values of health, education, and capacity building, and emphasised their commitment to backing Hon. Kamateneti's efforts in these areas.
The team also met with local leaders, urging them to continue working collaboratively with their communities to drive development. Additionally, they visited Nyanga Health Centre III, which had been restructured and equipped by Hon. Kamateneti. Salam Charity and All for One Austria have pledged further support to enhance the health facility's capacity.
This partnership represents a significant milestone in addressing the water crisis and healthcare needs in the Ntungamo district, showcasing the power of collaboration and commitment to community development.
