We met Father Victor, a young priest from Burkina Faso, who, after a period of study in Italy, was about to begin his service in a parish in his home village. Through some AGAPE supporters from Sardinia, we got in touch with him: he wanted to return to his extremely poor village with a gift that would help improve the lives of families, and he understood that the most important gift was water.

The initial goal was to provide the population of this small village in the south of the country with access to clean drinking water all year round, where people could quench their thirst and freely draw water to irrigate their crops.

Thanks to strong motivation and the involvement of the entire community, the project expanded its goals to include some entrepreneurial initiatives and a new well to irrigate larger fields and start agricultural production with harvests throughout the year.
