Drilling for Water

















Often the city water supply to the Center is no sufficient due to our long dry seasons as well as the growing number of businesses and new homes. The city has not always been able to keep up with the growing needs. Sometimes the Center can go for several days without water. With our Hospice care program at the Center this can cause big problems. A day or two without water is difficult for the patients not only for not being able to wash properly each day, but for cooking and keeping the area clean. A few months ago with water problems also at our new Ban Mae Maria we decided to drill for water there too and it has worked out very well - as well as reducing the montly water bill. It took just two days to drill for water, some extra time to relocate the water pipes, join the electricity for the pump so now we look forward to a good and regular supply of water for the needs of the Hospice and Center.
