Providing access to clean drinking water
Kwatekeh Africa has installed thirteen wells in villages and schools near the Suakoko Leprosy Rehab Center. Three of the villages had never had access to clean, safe drinking water. Now hand-dug, cement-lined, pump wells in each town ensure that residents can drink sparkling clean water every day and avoid many of the sicknesses they have lived with for a lifetime! We also maintain/repair three wells at the leprosy center that we did not install.
