subject: Watercan, Improving The African Wells To Provide Clean Water [print this page] It is now a known fact that the quality of the African Wells is just not keeping up with the need for clean water in African countries in development. Access to clean water is hard, and the consummation of tainted water is leading to the development of many health conditions resulting in the death of men, women and children of those countries. In order to improve the system of African Wells and be able to offer easy access to clean water in those regions of Africa, WaterCan has developed programs helping those communities to better their quality of life.
WaterCan is a leading Canadian charity dedicated to improve life quality in developing regions of the world. WaterCan believes that by working on establishing easy access to clean water by instauring a better system of African Wells, it can help communities in poor African countries to ensure a future for their children. Easy access to clean water means that the communities are able to maintain better hygiene protocols and eradicated health problems related to the consummation of tainted water; diarrhea, skin and eye infection, intestinal parasites, typhoid, dysentery and cholera, for example. WaterCan's goal is to promote self-help and education in those communities to encourage participation of each individual in the community will ensure that the solutions provided by WaterCan are sustainable and will last in the long term.
WaterCan has given their help to many communities all around the world with international projects, but the organization is now focusing its help to four African countries in development: Uganda, Ethiopia, Kenya and Tanzania. These four countries are in desperate need for reliable African Wells systems and with the help of WaterCan and its indigenous partners, community leaders are hoping to be able to provide clean water, hygiene education and basic sanitation to all members of the community whether it is for boys or for girls, for old or for young.
Watercan is a project started by the late Michael Lubbock. Lubbock had seen firsthand the poverty and the helplessness of developing communities while visiting Peru in the md-1960's. After working for CALA [Canadian Association for Latin America] for years, it was only in the mid-1980's that WaterCan/EauCan was finally founded with a vision focused on wells and water systems as central point to eradicate povery and empower communities. While Lubbock died shortly after, in 1989, his vision and mission is well on its way, with WaterCan still helping many communities and individuals by giving them the necessary tools to survive and educate themselves on hygiene, sanitation and by giving them easy access to clean African Wells water.
WaterCan does everything it can to help the poorest developing countries of this world to gain access to clean water, support hygiene education programs and help communities ensure a future for themselves. Making a donation to WaterCan is helping the world become a better place, by allowing the construction of African Wells in regions where it is needed the most, thus improving those communities' life quality.
