Shalambauko, Mzimba
Donated by Chartwells Through Sales of Life Water
This is currently now a happy village since they have been provided with a pump. They never thought that they would have a pump in their village. They used to draw water from open wells which are dangerous to the young. They thank drop4drop for the pump and welcome the tree planting project.
Throughout the country, millions of people are forced to risk their own health as well as their families due to not having a reliable and safe water source to drink from. The real danger of contracting nasty illnesses and even catching life-threatening diseases is something drop4drop projects aim to eradicate.
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.
