The Lolhaz Foundation for Children and Women has installed a borehole in Ago-Dongo, a rural community in Kurudu, Abuja, to improve access to clean drinking water. The foundation, led by Mrs Omolola Falohun, is dedicated to supporting women and children through education, welfare, empowerment, and addressing issues such as child molestation and abuse.
Prior to the intervention, residents of Ago-Dongo faced difficulties accessing clean water, often having to rely on contaminated sources which impacted the health and well-being of women, children, and other community members. The borehole installation aims to provide a more reliable source of clean water for drinking and other essential household needs, reducing dependence on unsafe sources and improving living conditions.
The foundation's initiatives also include academic scholarships for underprivileged children and empowerment programs for widows.
