Boreholes, Drilling Wells - W4KI.org

Women are singing, old men are crying as they never believed they would live long enough to see this, and children are ushered forward to be the first to drink clean, safe water from their village’s new borehole. This is more than a celebration; it is, indeed, an historic event for the entire community. It is a time for bringing together all tribes and faiths. It is a time for opening doors for other historic possibilities.

For our generous sponsors, you could take part in this important celebration! It is a lifetime memory that we are honored to share with you. We'll take you to the remote community you restored with life-giving water and get an opportunity to learn the true meaning of gratitude by villagers that "have never tasted safe water since the world was born." You'll meet our Water 4 Kids team and be an active part during the well dedication. You'll have an opportunity to greet the community and share about the gift you gave them or listen quietly while other community members stand up and give their personal testimony on how clean water has transformed their lives.

For many villages, you may receive a chicken or a goat - a special gift of thankfulness, nearly 25% of their wealth. For other villages that do not have an extra chicken, you may receive fruit or a special dance of jubilation. Regardless, it will be a day you will remember for the rest of your lives and we honored to share it with you!
