Water brings live !!

On February 10, 2025, we visited our project in Shantie Bamba. We could see for ourselves that the well in this village has caused a real revolution. The inhabitants have built a large vegetable garden around the well and grow various vegetables such as potatoes, tomatoes, corn, salad, eggplants, carrots and so on. Since the water is at a depth of 30 meters, with the help of “The Larry Foundation” we installed a water pump that runs on solar energy. This, of course, makes it much easier for the residents to irrigate their gardens. They also built a fence around the garden with their own funds to prevent wild animals from destroying their crops.

Your contribution will not be a drop in the ocean, but the beginning of a sustainable solution

Why "Water for Toubacouta" ? 

Poverty is very high in the region around Toubacouta. Public utilities are very limited and often unreliable or unaffordable for locals. Fresh water, for instance, is a major problem. The water supply system is very limited, unreliable and expensive. Surface water is brackish and few plants or vegetables can grow with brackish water. Therefore, we want to give local people access to fresh water by drilling wells.
