Clean Water Project 2024
We completed our well project in August 2022 on the Africompassion School Site in the Kogaja Village, Mara, Tanzania thanks to the generous support of our donors!
In 2024, we plan to complete a Clean Water project at the Nyamasanda Secondary School that will serve 600 students and
over 2,000 villagers in the neighbouring villages of Nyamasanda.
Help Provide Clean Water!
Watering holes in Africa often present dire conditions. They might be muddy puddles shared with local wildlife or dangerous lakes and rivers teeming with crocodiles and hippos. Typically contaminated by human and animal waste, these water sources are unfit for consumption. Yet, for many villagers, this is their only option.
Drinking from these unclean sources leads to severe health issues, including parasitic infections and diseases such as typhoid, cholera, and dysentery. Tragically, medical treatment for these illnesses is often inaccessible, resulting in prolonged recovery times or, particularly in small children, even death.
By providing a village in Africa with clean, sustainable water, you can profoundly impact the health and well-being of its residents, improving lives for hundreds, if not thousands, of people for generations to come.
Clean Water
Africompassion has achieved a remarkable milestone with a substantial water project in Kogaja! We successfully drilled a borehole on the Africompassion site, striking an abundant water source at a depth of 460 feet.
We installed two 5,000-liter water tanks on a tower, an electric submersible pump, and a water station with four faucets to provide more than 1,000 villagers clean water.
This project has been a transformative, life-changing endeavor for the community, significantly enhancing the health and daily lives of these wonderful people.
What's To Come?
Africompassion is dedicated to bringing clean, sustainable water to the village of Nyamasanda, located several miles away from Kogaja. We aim to drill a deep borehole well between 300 to 450 feet deep. To accomplish this, we need to raise $15,000. This funding will cover the drilling of the well, the installation of an electric well pump, and the setting up of water storage tanks.
Once completed, this well will significantly impact the local community, providing clean water to 600 secondary students, 500 primary students, and a village population of over 2,500 people. Your support can help us achieve this life-enhancing project for Nyamasanda.
