Manyoni Extension Water System #44

We are pleased to announce that construction on the Manyoni Extension water system #44 began in January of 2018 and finished in March of 2018!

An Update from the Field: Our current projects

We are excited to share the latest updates from our two current projects, fully funded at the 2017 Spring for the Water. Thank you for helping us transform lives forever.
