Progress report on Provide Clean water

By Wirkom Fred | Project leader

Tsenla women participating in the project

Dear readers,

I am pleased to report that with the help of the summer volunteers, Fabio Falter and Michael McLaughlin, the scheduled work has been completed. We have successfully connected a further two quarters of the community, with access to clean water.

The completed scheduled work on the 8^th of August was for the Shufai’s (village head) quarters, housing more than 30 people and the compound of the traditional leadership of the community. Further work has been done in a residential quarter, supplying a major part of the community with clean water.

Fabio and Michael have been a huge help, encouraging and inspiring the community. Together we have come up with the means to advance the project a little more. We have bought: 51 stand pipes, 31 private connections and 5 social taps. With these new acquisitions we have already finished the installation of access to water in two quarters and can schedule further work to spread access to clean water to other parts of the community.

Our volunteers have started to fundraise for this project using the GlobalGiving site, with the aim to have the complete means to finish the project by the time they leave Cameroon in October. We are truly grateful for the work done by Fabio and Michael. I am asking if anyone reading this report can support our cause and aid our brothers in their fundraising campaign. This will contribute to the great achievements by Self Reliance through the effective means of GlobalGiving.

Any reader that is willing and interested can easily view the fundraising campaign by our volunteers, using this link: https://www.globalgiving.org/dy/v2/fundraisers/water-is-life-1/

As previously done, I am attaching pictures of the current progress, with women fully participating. Hopefully as this fundraising campaign progresses we are able to see the progress accelerate and soon be nearing the final stages of the project.

May God continue to bless our brothers and sisters.

Progress report on Provide Clean water to the rural community Cameroon - Africa

By Wirkom Fred | Project leader

Dear Supporters and all interested readers and would be supporters.

Water is life and without clean water we would experience all sorts of deasesis leading to more deaths. The entire population of Romkong are very grateful to all of us who have been helping them in one way or the other in the process of their water scheme.

Since our last report, the project is on a slow growth rate as we are not able to afford more money to buy PVC pipes, cement and other material to keep going fast as we would have. We are glad to report that we are doing our best with the gradual funds being raised both by the Global giving and local community.

We have schedule to come out in full force to dig a pipe line and make it ready for use by one of the quarters that have been suffering in chasing water from quarters that were prioritised.

The Health Centre now has water and a small storage tank including the school and spoted public taps have been provided.

We are really struggling to see if the new Catchment can be completed and I am glad to report that the Collection chamber was already completed.

We are currenly gathering momentum and resources for the next exercise which we will be able to take and present more action project pictures.

We are equally reporting that this project has reduced a lot of health problems especially on young once who in the past were always having running stmacs . darrea etc.

We want to thank those who have supported this project in one way or the other and equally calliing on them to help promote this project in the forums, families and friends. Global giving has not got a limited number that one can support a project, as such we would be grateful if those who had supported in the past could still give as thier support just so that the project should be comppleted in the near future.

Remain blessed as you promote this project. May God replenish for those who had supported and open more meanse for more to to be done.
