LET’S CELEBRATE:
Thanks to those who came out to the 2017 Carry the Water 5K, the Burda Village is now enjoying clean water!
Project Description:
Borewell with sumbersible pump
Over head tank
Gravity tap
The Burda Village houses 274 homes for 1,376 people including 169 children. Before this well project was completed, people used to carry water from a nearby canal which is located 2 km. from their village. People in the village used to suffer from high rates of cholera, dysentery, diarrhea, kidney problem, and malaria.
New Life Ministries in Orissa have committed to provide the land, oversight of the project, and maintain the project for 10 years.
