Bogande – Dapani

The next 3 wells are all in the remote far east of the country.  It was such a long way to send a drilling rig and it was difficult terrain so it was not really an economical proposition  to drill a single well as the cost of an individual well would have been excessive in comparison to the others we have drilled.  The area of Bogande is dry and dusty and drilling rigs rarely go there as success can be limited.  Therefore it was decided to wait until we had enough money to do 3 wells in the area.  Great crowds of people turned up for the well blessing ceremony, I think they were just amazed that they had a well.

The well at Dapani is number 16 and the deepest one so far.

Who are we?

Our charity provides life-saving water wells in Burkina Faso – one of the poorest countries in West Africa. A few places do have mains water, but even that supply lacks purity.
100% of donations received go to pay for wells. The Trustees in the UK and Burkina Faso receive no remuneration for their work. The salaries of the two administrative staff employed in Burkina Faso are paid by the UK Trustees, or using funds specifically donated for this purpose.
