Agua Yaku, a project of the Evangelical Free Church of Canada Mission (EFCCM), is seeking support for its water well drilling ministry in Bolivia. The goal of Agua Yaku is to provide impoverished rural families and communities with access to clean water, as well as the training and tools that will allow them to inexpensively maintain their own clean water sources. The name Agua Yaku comes from the Spanish and Quechua words for “water.” Clean, accessible drinking water is an essential component of human development and yet entire communities still struggle for access to clean water. This project provides a lostcost water well drilling solution for thousands of individuals—improving their health, welfare, and economic potential—while teaching them to maintain their own wells in a sustainable manner. As Christians, we also share our faith and the message of hope found in Jesus Christ through friendships and partnerships will local pastors and missionaries.
Agua Yaku is completely funded by donations from individuals, churches, and businesses. Since 2008 Agua Yaku has drilled approximately 200 wells, providing a clean, reliable source of water to nine different people groups in
dozens of communities throughout eastern Bolivia. For the latest updates on Agua Yaku and to make donations, visit our website at: http://www.aguayaku.org, or join our Facebook group. To be included on our monthly mailing list
