Build 2 water wells for 500 villagers in Ethiopia

The dire consequences that come from a lack of clean water can be lost on those of us who can reach running tap water no more than five seconds away. For about a quarter of the world’s population however, the risk remains. The stakes have risen even higher lately with the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic where sanitation has become of utmost importance. And sanitation is almost unthinkable without clean water. Over the past year, Drop of Water has been running a fundraising campaign to construct 2 water wells to serve 500 villagers. Thanks to our wonderful donors, we were able to collect enough funds to build one of the water wells and give the villagers a better fighting chance. It was a true delight seeing all the happy faces the clean water had conjured. It is the motivation behind our continued effort. We aim to design more and more projects that benefit the community in this way. We’re currently conducting capacity building activities for our internal operations to increase our impact and work quality. We’re also excited to announce that our website will be launching soon! www.dropofwater.org So far, Drop of water has constructed over 80 water wells and transformed the lives of various rural communities for the better. We’ve partnered with over 20 organizations around the globe and fostered thousands of young volunteers and university students. We believe, success breeds success. What we’ve done so far only catapults us to greater things. Going forward, we face the last quarter of 2021 with preparedness so that in 2022, we widen our scope even further. There’s still time to donate for the second water well, so please visit the donate button and do what you can.
