5 years ago, we started working with the Marvin Salazar community to replace their hand-cranked water pump that wasn't meeting community needs. Over 200 families now use the electric pump, but there's more work to be done!

So far, we've reached nearly 80% of our goal. Help us raise $3000 to install water tanks to safely store clean drinking water for over 1,000 people living in Marvin Salazar, Tipitapa, Nicaragua!
