We’re thrilled to share that we’ve drilled 14 wells in Sierra Leone so far! Unlike hand-dug wells, which often dry up or become contaminated, these wells reach deep aquifers, providing a steady source of clean water for drinking, childbirth, and other essential needs. Thanks to the community’s efforts, reliable water access is transforming lives every day.
