Well Well Well
February 10th, 2009
Paddle4Relief’s 2008 initiative, to provide safe drinking water to the community in Arugam bay, saw the completion of ten Well projects.
We have helped more than forty families, more than 150 individuals of which one third of them are children.
We are presently working on a further four well projects.
And. for the rest of 2009, are planning to complete a further ten well projects.
This has only been achievable through the hard work of p4r’s team of committee and volunteers along with the ever growing band of supporters. Yes, you guys have made it achievable. All those families in Sri lanka now have safe drinking water. Thank you.
But we cannot end it there. The well projects being carried out now and later in the year need financing!
Each one averaging around £150.00. So we need more than £2000.00 to achieve this years Well Project goals.
One load of sand is approx. £10.00, a bag of cement £5.00, one brick 10p, a load £40.00. Small money when you see how many people benefit.
Can you help us? Can you organise a fundraising event or make a donation? Or come along to one of P4R’s organised events. Please contact us. (see our contact page).
