Completed: August 2024 Serves: A community of 324 adults, plus a school with an enrollment of 557 students from the surrounding area “We are soooo happy, indeed very grateful. ... You have done us so good in our school because we have been suffering a lot due to this water scarcity. The children have been fetching water from very far places—in fact deep, deep in the valley, a place that was very insecure for our kids. With this borehole within our school premises, the security of our schoolchildren is now assured. Not only that, even their academic performance is going to improve tremendously, so no child will miss lessons because of fetching water from a distance. Dear St Thérèse, you also know that water is life, so you have improved our health. I am sure all of us will never suffer from those diseases associated with drinking unsafe water, for which we are so very grateful." — Head Teacher Dorah, St. Anne Learning Center, speech at dedication ceremony Comments are closed.
