Water, Health and Happiness at Pu Char

Dear reader,

By the time you are reading this we have already given full stewardship of the project to the villagers of Pu Char.
We are happy to announce that now 70 families from the Bunong indigenous group are provided with clean water for drinking and irrigation. The Water Committee is saving money to maintain the water system and the two water tanks that provide the village with water. This is to ensure that the project is sustainable.

The availability of clean water just at their homes have given the villagers a sense of wealth they had not experienced before. This, together with latrines and the essential training on hygiene and sanitation has increased the health of the villagers by eliminating water borne diseases.

What is more, the people are now happily applying the knowledge they have gained from the numerous training courses provided by the CRDT. People are engaged in vegetable growing and livestock raising and can sell the surplus to the market. The establishment of an agricultural cooperative is increasing the power of the farmers.

Due to the succes of this project, we are no implementing projects that share the same design in the provinces of Kratie and Stung Treng.

For all our donors, we would like to send our heartfelt gratitude for making this project such a great success. Like our friends from Pu Char village, we wish you health and happiness!
