Wells for Life - Our Vision

OUR VISION

The need for safe water in India is incredibly large. It has been reported that India will be in the water stress category by 2025, and efforts are being undertaken by the Indian government to assess what programs and strategies can be implemented to address this frightening issue. Given the size of this problem, it would be easy to feel overwhelmed and not get involved, yet it is because of this type of problem that the opportunity for success is so great.

Wells for Life® is seeking to address the problem in India one well at a time, and to do so from a holistic perspective by first addressing the physical needs of the individual and then their community. We are seeking to accomplish this task through forming partnerships with other organizations that share the same passion we do for meeting one of the most basic needs: the need for water.

Wells for Life® continues to receive requests for water wells in different rural villages and communities throughout India...and the requests keep coming in. It is our vision to meet every viable request presented to us, and to do it such that the project is sustainable and provides a lasting impact. We seek to carry out our projects with the wholehearted participation of the receiving community and work with the community in taking ownership of the well project so as to keep it a life giving source for years to come.

With each of our projects we utilize the expertise of Indian professionals trained in engineering, hydrogeology, and construction as well gain the help of the receiving community to carry out the project. Furthermore, it is our goal to establish the location of each project on property that will afford equal access to all those within the village or community, regardless of one's faith or caste.

Finally, it is our hope that each project initiated will bring immediate relief to the village or community and will be a building block for future projects for all those we are in partnership with.
