Water Borehole in Zambia
Fundraising campaign by

£430.00Donated So Far
Hey friends, I spent some time in Zambia a few years ago adored the people and the country. Spending time with the locals in the gardens and villages felt like i was in the Garden of Eden, it was heaven! However, there were many people in the rural villages that had absolutely no clean water. Many people would drink and bathe in filthy water and become ill or die, and many others would walk miles each day to a well or borehole. Upon returning home I researched the statistics and over 50% of children in the rural areas of Zambia ever get very poorly or die. This is so sad. I promised myself I would go back and do all I could to help such lovely people in such an unfortunate situation. I spent years researching the best way to help and having meetings with charities and people who knew the area. There are many good charities that already exist but I wanted to go myself and maybe even bring a team and certainly make sure that money was best spent. I am going on 4th October 2015 and need to raise some money for the borehole. I am paying for all my own flights and accommodation etc. The total cost of the borehole is just £3,200. This will make the world of difference to some people and give children the chance to drink fresh clean water so please help with a donation if you can. Thank you so much! Samuel Leeds

Often, when I have clean, drinking water from the tap, I think how blessed we are; everyone and everything should have this basic need. Hope lots of folks give up a Friday night curry and donate to this worthy cause.
