HI AND WELLBORING FORMS PARTNERSHIP FOR WATER TO PRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDREN
WellBoring West Africa held its first board meeting on December 21, 2020, following its registration this year in The Gambia and election of Dr Karamo Sonko as Chairman. The Foundation is preparing to launch its pilot well project in The Gambia this year, as the beginning of its water program for the benefit of primary school children and their communities in West Africa.
WellBoring West Africa is one of two affiliates established by the British water Foundation, WellBoring, in spite of the COVID-19 pandemic. The second one is WellBoring Germany. WellBoring USA was established in 2019. The Foundation is fighting the pandemic in East Africa with water from its wells and soap from Colgate. In 2018, WellBoring's target was to dig 100 wells and provide water for 100 schools and communities in East Africa by 2020. It has now surpassed that goal, with 150 wells and schools by the end of last year, providing water for a total population of some 150,000.
We are grateful at Heeno International that WellBoring has responded very keenly to our invitation for a partnership, for the benefit of children and education in West Africa.
