Community Water Supply

Like many poor villages in Sri Lanka, the lack of fresh drinking water is a major problem in Embilipitiya and its surrounding areas. With aid from the World Bank, through the Sri Lanka government, the Sri Bodhiraja Foundation has implemented a number of community water supply project to supply pipe-borne drinking water to “Darsanagama” village. These community participation schemes are assisted by CWSSP of the Ministry of Housing and Construction and the World Bank. To date, more than 3000 families have benefited from these projects. Eight more water supply programmes are implemented in an area covering 31 villages, serving more than 37 000 people.
