Especially in the contemplative christmas season we would like to invite you to donate for our projects, for education and nutrition of people in need.
Every donation, no matter how small, is welcome to support people in emergency situations
With a portion of the 2020 Christmas Donation Funds, that we received from our generous supporters last year, we were able to install several more solar powered wells in the Matam region in northeast Senegal.
Getting water in the Matam regions is an immense struggle for many women and children.
