| Desc | By the end of August 2017, we established a location to drill our first well using donated land and sent money to our Board Member James Muteti in Kenya for the deposit.By the fourth of September, the company we contracted had completed the land survey and we were prepared to drill the well. By the end of 2017, we had received numerous donations, set up a system to receive money online, and established accounts for the employees of the City of Raleigh to contribute to World Wide Wells through their annual combined campaign. We also established a means of donating through the Amazon Smile program. We made travel plans for board members to arrive in Kenya and for the drilling of our first well which occurred shortly into 2018. | Desc |
