The towns of: Silenadre, Akukorpo, Kopedeka and Hodzo Aviepe

Silenadre is located in the Ziope area, and has a population of approximately 300. The town folks were trekking about a kilometer and a half to fetch water from the dam which has completely dried up. Now they are traveling 6km to access water and travel by motorcycle.

Akukorkpo and Kopedeka are in the Mafi area. Water is collected from unsafe sources. Water dugouts which are small and discolored Children are the most affected, sadly mothers do not have a choice but use it as drinking water for the children which is unboiled. These towns have a population of 200 and 150 respectively.

Hodzo Aviepe

In august of 2015 we completed another water project in the Hodzo Aviepe area in Ghana West Africa.. We were able to do this project thanks to St Margaret's School and CCD Program, Holy Cross High School, Sacred Heart parish in Glendale NY, Our Lady Of Hope ccd Program and some of our wonderful private donors. Below are some pictures of before and after. Since its completion this water project now serves over 3,000 people everyday with clean available water.
