Current Project: Water Wells for Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe, a country of 15 million is a landlocked country in southern Africa known for its dramatic landscape and diverse wildlife, much of it within parks, reserves and safari areas. On the Zambezi River, Victoria Falls make a thundering 108 meter drop into narrow Batoka Gorge. Downstream are national parks, home to hippos, rhinos and birdlife.
As beautiful as it is, the southern part of the country is dry; very dry and hot. Many villagers are 20 miles from the nearest clean water! With clean water near, the children can go to school and do not need to spend the day walking to get water. The family can then grow a garden. The need for fresh water is desperate. The FFHIA has drilled six wells in early 2022 and would like to drill 14 more. These 14 wells will provide water for 200,000 people!
