Well #19 also dubbed Del Sol Well is up and running with clean safe water and the community of Ebulechia village couldn’t be any happier thanks to the thoughtful generous giving of our wonderful donors. This well was commissioned and handed to the community in a short prayer gathering graced by the Give Amore team.
An account by Sherlyn’s grandmother and guardian to this well depicts a community that was in dire need for accessible clean safe water thus endorsing its coming as timely and considerate.
Theresa described to us how hard it was for her and her four co-wives to make numerous daily treks for years to distant water sources to fetch this common yet scarce significant commodity, and even when they found it; it was in meager amounts to cater for all their domestic needs. She re-called at some point going for weeks without bathing just to save the little water they had for other prioritized needs.
Now in her late 50s, Theresa views this well as a blessing sent to save her frail body and many others like her from the daily physical and psychological melancholies of where and how to fetch and get the water onto her doorstep. And if her smile is anything to go by, it is clear she is relieved from a burden she would have traded anything to be away from and so is the rest of the community.
