We are happy to report that 200 children are now attending Dudzai Community School. The school offers an alternative and hope for a future to these children. By attending the school, the children are provided with basic education, counselling, food and clothing.
But more is needed. The school does not have clean running water at this time. UNICEF declares that water is "the most fundamental necessity for life."
In our continued efforts to meet the childrens' most basic needs, we are now planning to drill a bore hole.
What is a bore hole?
A bore hole (or bore well) is
a well that has been drilled or bored by a machine to reach a source of
underground freshwater.
A recent article in The Post Zambia addressed the issue of Low Access to Safe Water and Sanitation.
Help us provide clean running water to the children at Dudzai Community School.
In the Millenium Development Goals, the bore hole is defined as one of six possible improved water sources.
With only $6000, we can drill a bore hole that will secure access to and supply clean water.
