Water
One of the other main ingredients for our orphanage building is water. You can’t make concrete without water. Trouble is that the village in which we are building doesn’t have any fresh water available to it. So in order to get water we have hired these women to carry it up in buckets carried on their heads from the valley far below our site. Part of what we want to do on our land is to dig a well that we will share with the village. Clean water that is easily accessible, not only means better health for all, less infant mortality but also more time in their day for productive pursuits like tending to crops or going to school.
Our well and water tower will come in at a cost of around $10,000 which of course we don’t yet have. You can help these women, our orphans and everyone else in this village by going to the donate page of this web site.
