Build a Well Program

GMF AUSTRALIA BUILD A WELL PROGRAM

An estimated 5000 children die from drinking unclean water around the world every day.

Millions of people in villages across Africa do not have access to clean drinking water.

Villagers, often women and children walk many kilometres to fetch water for their families and the reliance on surface waters which are often contaminated with faecal material is a major cause of waterborne diseases. Covered wells can eliminate the problem of contamination and provide safe and clean water.

GMF Australia is partnering with local organisations on the ground, to provide basic water wells to villages in Africa

Each of these hand pulling wells will last between 12-21 years and provide for 250-300 people.
