Houses for medical staff (€6.700)

Vehicles (€19.000)

The purchase of vehicles is vital to transportation, coordination and monitoring of projects in Zambia.

We also wish to acquire a new car (pick-up) to facilitate the coordination of projects and volunteers. Budget € 7.500.

Wells (€2.800)

We were able to conclude an agreement setting a price of € 2800 per well. This includes the drilling and installation of hand pump. We have already received requests for more than 10 wells.

Motorized mills (€3.500)

A motorized mill in a village saves a woman long walk distances to grind their grain and generates income for the community.
