In 2012, YOUR support allowed ALG to finance the construction of two new water wells, now
providing clean water to over 2,000 people in Bungane and Conjoene.
Two new water wells were drilled in Bungane
and Conjoene in the impoverished Gaza province of Southern Mozambique, to a depth of 80m and 100m each. These were outfitted with dependable
BluePump® hand pumps.
ALG's new water well in Bungane, inaugurated February 2013
at a cost of £11'500

Why is access to clean water so important in this region?
- Clean water and sanitation improves health
and prevents debilitating diseases
- Improved water access improves nutrition by
supporting subsistence farming
- Water shortage perpetuates poverty restricting
work and study opportunities
- Collecting water falls on young girls who
drop off school further hindering gender equality
With you again, this April, there is plenty of clean water in Mozambique!
