Friendship Village well repaired


Karen described the Bead for Life Friendship Village a couple of blogs back. Good news on their broken well! Bob Wright, a mechanically gifted and generous man, one who has lived in Uganda for several years with his family, volunteered his time last week to repair the broken hand pump. It no longer remains lonely and unused as it was two weeks ago when we took this photo. The village now has two working wells, giving them redundancy and a level of comfort with respect to their water supply. Further, he plans to return to train the local technician, Lawrence, in maintaining the pump. Thank you, Bob.
