Recently, Vision Help Foundation spearheaded a program that brought
running water to a Haitian community that previously had no access to
water service. VHF purchased pipe and materials, then enlisted the help
of local residents in creating a modern water pipeline. Now, the community has healthy running water for the first time.
Previously, residents were forced to haul water from sources 30 to 35
minutes from their home. This was often done by hand, carrying
containers back and forth. "It can sometimes be hard to believe people still have to live
without running water. That is why we made this one of our early
projects for bringing safe water and sanitation to communities around
the world," said VHF founders. The new community water system was built in the mountain village of
Lavaud. It is home to 2,000 residents with some members living 45
minutes from the nearest water source. St. Louis-based Vision Help Foundation partnered with a local government water management organization. Nearly everyone in the community pitched in to help. Safe, running water is considered essential for modern quality of
life and proper sanitation. The new community water system makes it far
easier to cook, clean, and properly hydrate in the warm tropical
environment. "This completed project is the first major step toward fulfilling our
vision of safe water and sanitation for communities in need. Our
generous donors make this possible," said VHF founders. VHF is hoping to install more community water systems around the world, but first needs donations to buy materials. The group is a registered non-profit. VHF has worked extensively in the St. Louis area and in Haiti to
bring better health awareness and education. They have been involved in
efforts to show residents how to stay safe from coronavirus infection. Source - https://www.newswire.com/news/vision-help-foundation-brings-running-water-to-haiti-community-for-21149165
