The Give Amore total well count now stands at eight after our most recent well was completed, commissioned and handed over to the community for their continued benefit and its care.
In a wonderful ceremony, only found on African soil, graced by Christa and Heather, the completed well was a child born into the arms of a longing community and judging from the songs, dance, hearty laughter from the women and children, and feasting, the well is a child they will protect close.
The well is not only the deepest sunk in Give Amore’s history, but also the one of them all that was frequently marred with sudden collapse and other threats due to the heavy rains that fell throughout the project.
The well is situated at Elvis’ home, a serene location closer to the village’s main road thus making it accessible and welcoming from a distance. According to the village elder, the well is projected to serve over 100 families, and many more visitors around it, throughout its lifetime.
On the other hand, our 9th well is fully funded and should take course soon! Stay tuned for updates on it! The average well costs around $2500. Please join us in bringing water to more communities. It’s truly a life-giving cause. www.giveamore.org
