Help us end the shortage of clean drinking water in sub-Saharan Africa.
This summer (2017), Prosper Zongo Foundation extended its service to the North Central region of Burkina Faso through the provision of a clean water well to the village of Arbollé (See video below). Like in many villages in the country, Arbollé is one where water scarcity keeps people in poverty. With their new water source, the Arbollé community now has enough clean water not only for themselves, but also for their livestock. Farmers can dedicate more time to their farms, women can spend more time at the marketplace, and children are now free to go to school instead of spending many hours fetching water. Moreover, we hope that access to clean water will save the Arbollé community from waterborne diseases.
