School Sanitation & Rainwater Projects

Harvest Blue partners with NGOs and schools to deliver practical sanitation and rainwater harvesting solutions. Our projects have three core goals:
(1) Safe, private toilets — especially for girls, including menstrual hygiene facilities
(2) Rainwater harvesting systems that supply handwashing stations and drinking water
(3) Fun, age-appropriate hygiene education that creates lifelong habits

We don’t just build — we teach. Students help maintain the systems, learning water conservation and environmental care. Parents and teachers receive training so every project lasts for years. We also test smart, low-cost innovations like solar pumps and efficient irrigation — solutions we’re now scaling to villages and entire communities.

Project Highlights So Far

• Over 50 schools now have safe latrines and handwashing stations
• More than 200,000 litres of rainwater harvested and used daily
• Student-led hygiene clubs spreading awareness in every school
• Ongoing workshops for teachers and parents on maintenance and sustainability

Green School Rain Garden

Rain gardens + infiltration trenches to capture runoff and prevent flooding.

Rooftop Harvest & Storage Tanks

Catchment systems supplying water for handwashing and drinking stations.

Sanitation Upgrade Program

Improved latrines and hygiene facilities for safer, cleaner schools.

All our designs are intentionally low-tech and low-cost — so schools and villages can maintain them easily for decades.
