- Public schools suffer from poor hygiene and sanitation due to the lack of access to clean water
- They lack funds for fixing plumbing systems and comfort rooms
- There is low awareness among students of the benefits of proper hygiene and sanitation
- There is low awareness of the importance of reliable water and wastewater services
How Maynilad Helps:
- BUILD drink/wash stations for the schools, FREE
- REGULAR SAMPLING of drinking water quality and desludging of the schools’ septic tanks to ensure proper sanitation
- STUDY TOURS of Maynilad water and sewage treatment plants
- HANDWASHING DEMOS for health and sanitation with FREE hand towels and soap produced by our STM communities
The Lingkod Eskwela program has helped improve hygiene and supply of clean water in 46 schools in the West Zone since 2008.
