A message from the community

Tuesday 20 May 2025 Gachette 3eme section Dear Donor, We are writing to express our heartfelt gratitude for your generosity in helping build a well in our community. Your contribution has been transformative. Previously, our daily lives were a constant struggle to access clean water. We often had to walk miles for water, which was not guaranteed to be safe, leading to severe illnesses and causing children to miss school. Now, thanks to your compassion, we are stronger, diseases have decreased, hygiene practices have improved, and children attend school regularly. Thank you for your commitment to making a significant change. The community of Gachette 3eme section.
