Providing a water well to Kautachiwadi
Project completed in July 2005
While visiting a village located at a 2hrs drive from Mumbai, we discovered that the existing well only provided water during 5 months per year; during the rest of the year, the women had to walk many km in order to carry back little water.
Once the necessary permits were obtained, construction work started immediately to replace the existing water well. This type of project can be completed in several villages of the surrounding area, which will simplify life for hundreds of people.
