This project is to dig 3 boreholes and 10 wells to serve multiple villages in Togo. This improves the living conditions, especially of women. Easy access to water improves the stability of the population and ecourages economic activities, particularly farming.

Drilling a well is quite simple especially with the availability of help from the locals. With a 20m depth, the unit costs is estimated at $1,000.

Digging a borehole is much more expensive, since we also need to do some planning and zoning of the surface, buy the pump material, etc. for an estimated cost per unit of $10,000.
