Caritas Czech Republic is building a rainwater harvesting system at “Albinuța” kindergarten, in Moldova
At the beginning of September, Caritas Czech Republic in Moldova, in partnership with the Bilicenii Vechi City Hall, initiated the installation of a rainwater collection and utilisation system at the “Albinuța” kindergarten. The system, which involves capturing, filtering, and storing rainwater, will serve household needs, reducing the consumption of water from conventional sources and helping to cut institutional costs. This step is especially important in the context of many rural kindergartens facing a lack of running water, where alternative solutions are essential to ensure proper hygiene conditions for children. Moreover, the initiative provides a concrete example of how natural resources can be used efficiently and responsibly, with plans to replicate it in other institutions across Moldova.
