Water Supply For Children and Their Families

Dear Friend,

Warm greetings and thank you very much for your support to our initiative providing water supply for children and their families. There is an announcement that severe dry season is forthcoming and we are trying to prepare for it by finding water sources in the hinterlands. It is indeed very difficult for villagers if they have to walk long distances in order to fetch water and this usually happen during dry season when ordinary water sources begin to dry up. This reporting period, we are trying to assist a village repair their pipes in order to get water from about 2 kilometers away. They have already installed pipes but this was not cared for during the past rainy months when rain was plentiful. We badly need your help in this situation because there are broken pipes already that needs to be replaced. Thank you in advance for your generosity.

Very sincerely yours,

Dear Friend,

Thank you very much for your support to our initiative providing water supply for children and their families. Water is becoming scarcer nowadays and we try to remedy the situation by implementing projects that protect the integrity of watershed areas. We are thankful for some opportunies coming our way especially with other donors and supporters who are keen in providing for watershed amelioration projects. Hoping that we will succeed in this and we are piloting a watershed improvement model in 3 villages in Misamis Oriental province. This reporting period we are doing survey of possible water sources and areas needing reforestation. Hoping for your continuing support and assistance. Thank you very much.

Very sincerely yours,

Dear Friend,

Thank you very much for your generous support to our initiative providing water and sanitation for children and their families. We included sanitation support in our repertoire because they come hand in hand with the supply of water. Water is becoming scarcer in some communities because of deforestation and the lack of active acquifers. We have a long-term plan to improve sources of water and hoping that we will be able to secure support. This reporting period we provided sanitation supplies to 250 individuals, thanks also to additional supporters and friends. Hoping for your continuing support and encouragement for this project. 

Very sincerely yours,

Dear Friend,

Thank you very much for your generous support to our project providing water supply for children and their families. Water is becoming scarce most especially when disaster occurs. The situation in coastal villages is that the water wells are inundated with sea water seeping into the water table and making the wells useless for everyday use by villagers. In some instance there are springs nearby and this is a good source of water fed via gravity to lower communities. We are experts about providing this type of service and so during this reporting period we are able to repair one gravity-fed water source providing a small village of 70 families with water. We are also trying to connect with local experts on how to rehabilitate water wells that are inundated with sea water in order for these to be useful again. Again thank you so much for your generous support.

Very sincerely yours,

Dear Friend,

Greetings from ALEY and thank you very much for your support to our initiative providing water supply for children and their families. Water is life and the access to water is becoming difficult as the years go on. The need to devise innovative water supply for poor communities is central to long-term water sustainability. Together with a local partner we are promoting water catchment and storage facilities using available materials and in a cheap and durable manner. One of the methods is the use of what we call ferrocement technology or using iron and concrete to form containers and catchment. We were able to design one unit as model during this reporting period and we hope that communities will adopt this. Thank you very much for your continuing support.

Very sincerely yours,

Jed Christian
