Project Status: Mission accomplished

We have completed the project to provide water to 40 families who live in the village of Thuldi in Cavbre district.

Having water in their village was such a special event that women put on their wedding dresses and put make up on to participate in the inauguration ceremony.  They danced to the rhythm of traditional music and accompanied me around the village. It was truly a joyful and colorful celebration to mark the end of their problems and suffering due to the lack of water in Thuldi village.

Thuldi village was badly shaken by the earthquake. 40 families in this remote village in The Himalayan Mountains were suffering badly. All the houses in Thuldi are either damaged or completely destroyed by the earthquake. Most of the families live in temporary housing. But the worst thing is that they lost their water source. Everybody was going through lot of hardships as they had to bring water from a far away spring for people as well as for animals.

Bringing in a pipeline from a distant spring, we built a holding tank and four taps in different locations. Since the community is spread out, we decided to build four taps in different locations so that everybody will have easy access to a water tap. 

When the celebration ended, darkness had fallen already and it was time for a big feast. It is hard to describe the joy I felt and joy we shared together on this special day. What an amazing experience. Gratitude and blessings to everybody who supports us. 

Celebrating the arrival of water in the village. A Joyful moment for everybody. What an amazing experience.
