PUSH TO WELLNESS FOR HUMANITY

​Populations from Nkouampbouer 1, a southern Cameroon village cannot be happier: they have access to a safe and clean drinkable water. Before now, these populations and for many generations had access to a muddy water for their needs. That water was used all day long in all aspects of life where water is needed: to bathe, to wash their clothes and dishes, to cook and more as drinking water while exposing themselves to a variety of diseases. This is over now. Statistics about water-related diseases and deaths would be significantly affected in the coming months. These people- living in a sixteen (16) mile radius of the water source- can now drink water or use it for their daily needs without fear of getting sick. According to the representative of the community, Elie MBPOAPFOURI, “there is no word to describe how they feel right now. It is a dream come true. Thanks to PWH”. This project was carried out by PWH and the community. Men, women, and students contributed by bringing sand, cement, wood and other materials needed to build this water extension. Technicians from the capital city Yaounde came for the project. Taking advice from the water experts, they put into place a system that uses filters, takes into consideration norms and hygienic measures and  generates  7l/minute of water per pipe.

On behalf of these populations, Elie MBPOAPFOURI thanked PWH for bringing clean water and expect more projects to help the community.
