Clean Water in Haiti

Since becoming a part of the community in Lacule, in southern Haiti, we noticed a great need. Outside the clinic gates runs a simple drainage ditch. Far away from a river, water running through this ditch serves as the communal bath, clothes and dish washing area but also a latrine and garbage dump for the community. Seeking to give back to the community, AFH partnered with Arch Nova, a German NGO, and Water Missions International to help construct, administer and treat a new source of clean water. Now serving the entire community of Lacule for the first time, stands a well, 10,000 gallon clean water tower and treatment system. With Haiti’s past history of water born diseases, now including cholera, this clean water system is designed to provide this community with clean drinking water for years to come. Thanks to everyone that helped make this possible!
