Raise funds from donors and organisations; Involve parents in contributing 10% of the funds required; Dig a 12 feet deep pit in a pond near school; Dig a 20 feet deep well in the school compound. Create a filtering chamber in the pond; Put a plastic pipe in the chamber and connect it to the well; Cover the chamber with a coating of small pebbles, stones and sand on top; Once water accumulates in the well, put a submersible motor to pull the water up; Set up a Sintex tank for water storage; Allow students and villagers to use the water in the Sintex tank for their everyday needs.
