Kindly Donated by Colicci Through Purchases of Life Water

“Despite many challenges encountered during the process, we successfully installed the pump for the first time in the village of Mjinge in Mzimba District. The pump will serve a large number of people, as access to clean water has been a serious issue, with existing pumps located far from the village. For years, villagers relied on streams and unprotected open wells, which they shared with wild animals, leading to frequent outbreaks of waterborne diseases. The village chief expressed gratitude to Colicci for providing safe and clean water. The community relies on farming for survival, and although the villagers are poor, they are hardworking. There is a pre-school in the area, but it lacks trained caregivers.”

This project was undertaken as part of our campaign of projects that actively reduce carbon emissions. This project helped the community save their much needed wood which was previously being burnt daily to boil water. This project has also eliminated the many thousands of hours previously spent on walking to collect water.
