Justin Parkhurst (Idaho, U.S.A.). June 2013. Srah & Tnout Trom village. Wells No.168-167

In June, 2013, Mrs. Kyra Parkhurst from Idaho, United State of America, has been continued her generosity to support the Foundation for Water & Education, Cambodia (FWEC), by contruting the funds for more two wells for helping the poor poeple of Cambodia in a rural village of Siem Reap. Mrs. Kyra has been helped the poor people in a remote village with four wells in 2012.  

The construction of  wells has been installed on a property of each family and they share the water with the family around. Before they have got a well they drank the water from the pit well in the depth of 2 meters deep. Although most of Cambodia has plenty of water, what is available to the majority of families is either natural surface water, or water made available in shallow, hand dug, pit well. Both of these sources are filled with mud, insects and covered over by even dirtier water during the yearly floods. They drank these sources that would make them get sick the stomach.

Having clean water from a relaible sourse not only allows families to have water for cooking and drinking but also allows for bathing and laundry, all of which reduces the causes of disease and illness. In addtion to better health and hygiene, the families will have the opportunity to plant an additional crop that not rely on seasonal flooding for irrigation. This additional crop creates a more balance diet and creates an economic opportunity by enabling the famliy to sell excess produce at the market. 

Thank you so much Kyra, that continue your generous support the FWEC helping the poor people of Cambodian. On behalf of a Director/Founder and the teams of FWEC with Cambodian people we are really appreciate to your generosity and support. We pray for god blessing you always.
