Project Funded

Project update: the pumps and wells grant has been fully funded thanks to the generous contributions of family, friends and Water Charity. I'm now waiting for Peace Corps to finish processing the grant and can hopefully begin soon. The first step will be to test the water at each location to ensure the sources are not contaminated. We'll wait 10 days for the results and then can begin construction in December. We are cutting it close with rainy season on its way but my community is very motivated to start. They estimated construction to be completed within one month. I'm skeptical on that timeline but ho hitatsika eo (we'll see). I'm excited to begin soon and a huge thank you to everyone who supports this project!
