Residents of Ihalakumbukwewa are experiencing an epidemic of Chronic Kidney Diseases due to their contaminated water supply.
Ihalakumbukwewa is located in the Sooriyawewa DS division in the Hambantota District. The village, along with Mahagalwewa and Diyawaragama, is home to 800 families. The residents are primarily farmers and daily wage laborers. The community has been deprived of clean drinking water for over 21 years. Villagers either have to pay high prices for clean drinking water or are forced to consume contaminated water. Lack of access to clean water has resulted in numerous illnesses and kidney ailments among the villagers.
Installation of an RO Plant in the village of Ihalakumbukwewa using the tube well as a water source. Install a Water Filling Station which will provide the residents of Ihalakumbukwewa and neighboring villages have access to clean drinking water free of harmful pollutants. Further, the proposed RO plant will reduce incidence rate of kidney disease and other water borne illnesses in the resident population. Moreover, we will introduce a preventive and periodic maintenance plan to ensure project longevity by forming a Gammadda Saviya.
