Clean water

 


 




 
Rod visited 5 communities this week that need a clean water supply. We think we will have funding to do three of the five. It costs between $800 and $1000 to protect a spring to serve about 400 people. The protection consists of building up the area around the spring, placing a concrete wall and pipes and protecting the surface behind the wall with rocks, sand and earth, to prevent run-off from latrines and fields.
