What's New
 
 

Our crew has just sent in some photos from the Precious Academy well project in Western Kenya.

For this project our crew was sent in to replace a well that had not been drilled properly by another driller.  The old well had collapsed internally.  The school and local community were in desperate need of a clean, safe and reliable water source.

The good news on this project is that the well pump from the faulty borehole could be salvaged and is in good working order.  The last step before this project will be complete is moving that pump onto the new borehole casing seen in the pictures below.

We’re awaiting a full report including more photos, GPS coordinates and the total number of people it will benefit.  We hope to update this post soon with that new information.

When we met this young boy in Kenya, his expression said it all. Surrounded by dirty, diseased water we too wondered...why? Help build wells and give clean water...
