EarthEnable
Uganda
EarthEnable is transforming how people live by making homes healthier for families across rural Uganda and helping to reduce the polluting impact of the building industry on the environment. 70% of Ugandans live in homes with dirt floors that are dusty, unsanitary, and fertile breeding grounds for parasites and germs. While replacing a dirt floor with concrete has significant health benefits (e.g., reducing diarrhea by 50% and parasitic infections by 80%), concrete is unaffordable for many who need it and is a huge contributor to global pollution.
