Welcome to the Noble Youth Foundation (NOYU)! We are a dedicated organization based in Lira City, Uganda, with a mission to improve access to clean water and sanitation facilities while promoting good hygiene practices within our communities. By working hand-in-hand with local partners and residents, we strive to create a healthier and more sustainable future for everyone.
Our Mission
Our mission at NOYU is simple yet powerful: to ensure that every individual in our community has access to safe, clean water and proper sanitation facilities. We believe that clean water is a basic human right and that good hygiene practices are essential for a healthy life. By focusing on these areas, we aim to reduce waterborne diseases, improve overall health, and enhance the quality of life for the people in our communities.
Our Approach
At NOYU, we adopt a community-centered approach. This means we work closely with local partners and community members to understand their specific needs and develop tailored solutions. Our approach includes:
- Building and Repairing Water Facilities: We construct new wells, boreholes, and water systems, and repair existing ones to ensure a consistent supply of clean water.
- Improving Sanitation: We build and upgrade sanitation facilities such as toilets and hand washing stations in schools, health centers, and public places.
- Promoting Hygiene Education: We conduct hygiene education programs to teach people about the importance of hand washing, safe water storage, and proper sanitation practices.
- Community Involvement: We engage local communities in the planning and implementation of projects to ensure sustainability and ownership.
Why Clean Water and Sanitation Matter
Clean water and proper sanitation are crucial for the health and well-being of any community. Here’s why:
- Prevents Diseases: Access to clean water and sanitation facilities reduces the risk of waterborne diseases such as cholera, dysentery, and diarrhea.
- Promotes Hygiene: Good hygiene practices prevent the spread of illnesses and improve overall health.
- Supports Education: Children, especially girls, can attend school regularly when there are clean water and sanitation facilities available.
- Boosts Economic Growth: Healthy communities are more productive and can contribute more effectively to the economy.

- Constructing new wells and boreholes, providing clean water to thousands of people.
