Build 2 water wells for 500 villagers in Ethiopia

Building on our foundation of providing clean water, DoW is continuing to work on the expansion of our project work across Ethiopia the past quarter. We are actively implementing new and final-stage projects in several regions, driven by our core mission to secure this fundamental right for all communities. The dedication of our teams and the unwavering support of our partners are bringing us closer to a future where water scarcity is no longer a barrier to a better life.

Our work continues to progress across multiple regions, with significant achievements and ongoing efforts to overcome logistical challenges. Following our successful rehabilitation of existing water points, we are now actively working on a new water project in the Tigray region. This initiative is designed to provide clean water access to several villages, directly impacting the health and well-being of thousands of community members. 

Our other project is in the Amhara region, where the main construction of our clean water project for a local school and the surrounding village is complete. Our team is currently focused on the final phase of work, including pipeline installation and the construction of water distribution points, known as bonos. We anticipate the completion of this project in the coming months. We are also finalizing clean water projects at three distinct sites in the Sidama region. Simultaneously, work is progressing at our project sites in the SNNPR Region. Despite the considerable challenges posed by the heavy rainy season, our team is working tirelessly to ensure these projects are completed and will result in thousands of people across Ethiopia receiving clean water as soon as possible. 

Beyond direct project implementation, we are committed to empowering the next generation of leaders about water and climate. We are in the initial stages of revitalizing our volunteer programs at universities, aiming to inspire and educate a water-conscious generation that can carry this mission forward. With the approaching Ethiopian New Year, exciting times are ahead of us with this initiative as well as other upcoming projects that are going to be implemented.

We extend our sincerest gratitude to all our partners and funders for making our vision their concern. Our impact is a direct result of the collective effort of our community and partners. Your support is the cornerstone of our work. Thank you to GlobalGiving, a long-standing partner that has provided an invaluable platform for our voice to be heard and our mission to reach a global audience.

By serving our communities, we are not just providing water; we are giving people a chance and protecting their fundamental right to live. Investing in a better life allows communities to dream bigger and better for themselves, rather than fighting for basic survival. 

Clean water for all, always plays a part in improving the lives of others.
