-These water wells have enabled 700 children from the elementary and middle school of Bongandoue to have ACCESS TO SAFE drinking water FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THEIR LIVES.

-The access to SAFE drinking water and the ENVIRONMENTALLY - FRIENDLY sanitation equipment are bringing immediate improvement TO THE QUALITY OF PEOPLES LIVES WHILE favoring environment protection.

-Our next goal is to RAISE $50,000 to create additional well drilling with manual pump along with the sanitation equipment for more 1000 people and their children.

The artist, Vicky Colombet, has donated an edition of 300 prints called Cloud each work to be sold for this occasion at $100.00
This work is part of an homage to Alfred Stieglitz photographic work The Equivalents. The cloud symbolizes water crossing borders.
