2021 was our biggest year yet!
We TRANSFORMED and IMPACTED 158,474 lives!!
We implemented 52 projects in 20 schools, 24 villages, 8 health facilities, and 1 prison.
We drilled 26 new boreholes, repaired 23 broken pumps & projects, and installed 9 solar water systems - allowing running water for the very first time in the most remote locations.
We held borehole training sessions, collaborated on our 1st solar irrigation project, organized menstrual hygiene education seminars that included reusable pads distribution, and so much more.
Best of all, we continue to be inspired and excited to do it all over again next year...and beyond.
