About Adubinso Community

Adubinso is a rural community in the Afigya Kwabre South District, facing significant challenges in accessing safe and clean drinking water. The community lacks a reliable piped water supply, and most residents rely on distant or non-functional boreholes and other unprotected water sources. Limited access to potable water affects household health, daily activities, and livestock water supply, which are vital for local livelihoods.
This hand-pump borehole project is therefore essential to provide a sustainable, safe, and easily accessible water source for both residents and animals, addressing the critical water scarcity issues in Adubinso.
