Lots of people trained, and some really good movement in the actual projects. And 2010 is going to be a year of real action and expansion, no doubt about it!!

GIS Work in Tushile

Peter, Forrest, Arbin and some of the Tushile villagers

During the summer, Peter and Forrest from Wheaton College did a complete GIS survey of Tushile, Kosovo. On site was Arbin, our local agent there, and our project manager, Daniel, visited in the summer and again in the fall. Jeff from Wheaton was able to visit his students and our good friend Bill who has worked in Kosovo for years was on hand for much good advice

The new pump is installed at Karama village

Nick has done a lot of work in Rwanda, and now several new locations have underground tanks (yes, BUTTS!), including a boys’ home, a missions base, and a school. Not only that, but WFL was able to repair a pump in Karama village near the school so they have good water now.
