Water Project

Dogo

Our goal is to provide villages with public access to clean water.

Dogo’s growing public access to clean water.

 

Dogo is a remote village about 162 kilometers from the capitol city, Bamako. There are roughly 3,500 villagers, including 340 students. Dogo lacked access to clean water.

The Mali Wellness Foundation drilled a deep well system (310 feet) that does not dry up in the summer months. The system includes a newly designed filtration system to ensure pure, potable water for the village. A 5,000-gallon water storage tank was placed on a 20-foot tower above the well, along with four solar panels that provide power for the submersible pump placed at the bottom of the well.  Two water spigots were placed near the schoolyard, one spigot connects to the community garden, and one placed in the central village, so all have access to clean drinking water.

Get involved.
