HELP OLIVIA ON HER BIRTH DAY GIFTS williamsceline8: Olivia is a kind and sensitive 1st grader in Raleigh, NC. She came home from school recently, after learning about the lack of clean water in some regions, and quietly informed us that, for her birthday, she would like people to help her raise money to drill a well. Rather than recieve gifts for herself, she wants to share the gift of clean water with others! We are very proud of her spirit and passion to help others and put their basic needs above her own desire for new toys/gifts. After careful research, we are very excited to be partnering with Carol and Brian of Love One Another Project. We are working with them specifically to drill a borehole in the village of Busega, Kampala in Uganda. Families in this community have no access to clean water and instead walk about a mile to fill buckets with stagnant, diseased water - the only thing available to them. This water is used for drinking, cooking, laundry, dishes, livestock, brick making, bathing, and so much more! Boreholes are deeper than wells and, as a result, never run dry. Olivia's birthday wish will ensure that an entire village has access to clean drinking water for generations to come!
