Joel and his nine children have access to water!

Joel is 49 years old and is married with nine children. Joel said that since he was born, no borehole well has ever been drilled in his community and that the joy of having such a water source at this time is inexpressible. He added “Ask anyone, young or old and you will believe me.”

To him, the health of the community has greatly improved. Diarrhea that was very common both in adults and children is no longer a problem. In this photo, you can see Joel arranging jerry cans at the water source. Joel’s family lives about 40 meters from this well, and are very happy to have such convenient access to water.

Thank you Laurent, Lokesh, Balaji, Anil, Bill, Chris, David, Sanjiv-Rajani, and Sterling and Melinda for helping support the cost of this well!
