We want to thank our GlobalGiving donors for donating nearly $2,000 to repair the well that serves our village in Afghanistan. We know many of you made donations to this project in addition to making your usual contribution to the Kids 4 Afghan Kids schools. We can't begin to tell you how very grateful we are for your generosity.
The well was more than 10 years old. It eventually wore out from constant use. This breakdown created an emergency situation for the village because the well supplies all the drinking water for the more than 500 families who live in and around the village.
We also are very thankful that one donor became very concerned and paid the more than $8,000 necessary to complete the repairs.
We are happy to report that the well has been repaired and that the schools and clinic are up and running as usual. None of this would be possible without YOU. Again, we thank you very much!
