Climate change and extended droughts are straining farmers, complicating food production and jeopardizing livelihoods. To address these challenges, Fair Future Foundation’s Water Connections program and health initiatives offer sustainable solutions that ensure access to clean water, enhance nutrition, and bolster rural economies.
Malaria continues to pose a daily threat in this area. Through Kawan Against Malaria, we monitor cases, test all fevers, protect homes, and educate families. The use of bed nets, spraying, and prompt treatment turns statistical data into lives that endure quietly, rather than ending prematurely.
