Summary: Water well benefitting the community and school of Adi-Gulti, Ethiopia.
The community of Adi-Gulti and the school lack consistent and reliable access to potable water. The current wells are shallow, open to pollution, and provide insufficient water. The well we propose will provide sufficient potable water for the community and school. A storage tank will ensure sufficient potable water is consistently available. The water system should be functional two-to-three months after the beginning of the dry season in 2025-2026. Funds will be used for drilling the well, an electric pump, storage tank, tank stand, distribution system, and water collection points. Club members are involved raising funds, writing the proposal, and publishing the successful completion of the project.

Robert,
The District had $18,000 more grant requests than available DDF for the 25 - 26 grant year. In order to meet the available DDF it was determined that we need to reduce the 3 tier levels to the next lower tier or $1,000. I have cancelled your signature process and reduced your DDF request by $1,000. You will need to either reduce the total budget for your grant or increase your club giving by $1,000 so it balances. Once you have made this adjustment please start the signature process again.
If you have any questions please email or call me at 970-629-0654.
