Recent assistance given by Green Care Association (GCA) to some community water schemes has triggered many applications seeking support. The donations have been through Global Giving donors. The funds have been used to purchase building materials like sand, cement and stones to support community water projects. Thanks to our wonderful donors, the lives of many rural dwellers have been significantly improved and we are looking forward to many more such opportunities. It is for some of these reasons that one of the community leader of the Mbotong Water Scheme, Eric, told us during a meeting that ‘I very much cherish your organization and work and hereby wish you extend assistance to our community, we are desperate and need your assistance’. GCA always advice communities to plan well in advanced their projects while involving women and youths and keeping good records so as to guarantee sustainability. We remain grateful to Global Giving for motivating GCA and our communities through their donors.

For a while we have not been able to report on our water project. However, so much has been happening. We are sorry for the silence and wish to share that the project is ongoing and continue to be achieving its goals. The water management committee has been holding regular evaluation meetings. An outstanding the decision has been arrived on how to extend the scheme to various parts of the village as well as the community's contribution to the success of the project extension. It is for these reasons that the chairperson of the project Mr. Patrick during one of the meetings reiterated 'even though much remains to be done, I am happy, with the community's contribution and what our partners and friends like Green Care Association, Caritas Kumbo Diocese and Global Giving donors have done to us. As chairperson of the scheme I wish to take this opportunity to extent our heartfelt appreciation' The scheme is prospecting five more extensions within the communities before the start of the dry season to reduce water scarcity and water-related illnesses within the community. We remain proud and thankful to Global Giving donors for ever.
