Drilling Companies and Charities Restore Ethiopian Water Well

摘要

U.S. drilling industry members and two Christian charities donated equipment, supplies, and expertise in May to rehabilitate and return a partially blocked primary water well to full capacity in Sendafa, Ethiopia. The well is a primary water source for 15,000 residents. Living Word Community Church (LWCC) donated $45,000 to the effort. It was the first environmentally friendly treatment of a mineral-blocked well in Ethiopia-and possibly the first water well rehabilitation project of its kind in Africa-according to Ethiopian officials.
