Water for the poorest

26th July 2019: 


The installation was good, men and women came in large numbers to witness the installation of the pump. During rainy season women struggled to find clean water in the village because the water would mix with dirty water from the rain. The villagers’ were happy to have clean water for the first time in the village.  The people in the village are poor and life is difficult. They are very far from main road, there are no hospitals, women walk long distances to find firewood. They are requesting for tree seeds so that they should have woodlots in their homes.
