Water Wells

In Akouvi’s community in Togo, the only water source was a reservoir shared with farm animals. Akouvi’s daughter and the other children were constantly sick with waterborne diseases, causing them to miss school and, in some cases, even die. Thanks to donors like you, the Compassion center in Akouvi’s community funded a borehole, providing a stable source of clean water.

“This borehole is our rescue,” says Akouvi. “Before, children had been falling sick at least three times in a month. Since we have been consuming this water provided by Compassion, our children rarely fall sick.”

Thank you for giving a water well to communities like Akouvi’s, protecting children from disease and enabling healthy physical development.
