As part of the “Donate the Water” scheme, which has been made possible through the partnership established between Butterfly Charity Foundation, ECC-SDCOAd-B, (Catholic Association of Adigrat) and Vo l’A ( Associazione l’Accoglienza), several projects water-related, are presently under progress in Tigray region, North of the country at the border with Eritrea. The above, following to the recent severe drought, the worst since over the last years.
A water well, completely dry for several years, has been officially opened on May 28th 2019 at the village of EGRIGEF, Saesie Tsaeba Emba district in Tigray region, Ethiopia. This water well has been rehabilitated after more than one year thanks to financial support secured by the Associazione Volontari l’Accoglienza, based in Caselle (TO).
In accordance with the usual procedure, new extended pipes have been installed to reach the depth of 49 metres, as well as a brand new, hand-operated pump and fencing.
The well has been dedicated to Luisella by Giulia e Pietro Ravera while the beneficiaries of this well are 500 people approx.
A renewed thank to Vo l’A association for its long-lasting support
