The Clean Water Project: A Way to Leave a Lasting Impression
There is almost no need so basic as having clean water to drink, but
many Cambodian people do not have access to it. In the countryside,
most people rely on water from rivers and streams, but this water is
often diseased and polluted. Many of the country’s worst health
problems can be traced back to the use of these unclean water sources.
The victims of these diseases are often children, whose parents have
no way to pay for medical care. It is estimated that 60% of rural
residents have no clean water to drink.
The good news is that this problem is easily fixed for individual
families with the installation of a well. A properly installed well
can ensure that the family will have drinking water for many years and
a greater chance of health and prosperity. The cost of making such a
big difference is only 180 USD. When my customers see the beauty of
Angkor Wat and the very difficult lives of the people who live near
it, they often ask how they can help. I want to suggest that paying
for even a single well to be installed can truly change the lives of
those Cambodians who are most in need.
What makes this an extraordinary giving opportunity is that you willmeet the people who receive your well and see firsthand where your
donation is going. Together we will go to the countryside, meet a
rural family, hear their stories, and assist in the installation of
their new well. If you are interested in giving Cambodian people
clean water and a fresh start, please tell me when you book your tour
so I can make the proper arrangements before you arrive. Thank you
for your generosity!
