Kwelani, Malawi

Kwelani Village is successfully drilled (May 2021)! So exciting!

Kwelani village is a rural village in the Thyolo State in the country of Malawi. This village (and others close by) have been identified as being in an URGENT need of clean water. The people suffer from cholera, diarrhea, dysentery and bilharzia (schistosomiasis).

There was no well or borehole in the village so many (mostly children) spending hours collecting water.  Currently there is no school, no hospital clinic and no current sewage in the village. 

The situation was compounded by the global COVID-19 pandemic.
