Three new wells!

During the first week of May 2017 the Friends in Action - Northern Ireland well-drilling team visited Gogo and drilled three wells for the villagers. The people were absolutely thrilled to have access to abundant safe, clean water after years of struggling to obtain water for their daily needs.

Thank you for all your help in making this happen. Not only will this cut down on the amount of labour it takes for the ladies and girls to get water, but we anticipate an improvement in the over-all health of the community because of this important project.

A huge thank you to Friends in Action for travelling from Burkina Faso over some very difficult terrain with all their equipment and for providing two of the three wells free of charge.
