Reach For Water'18 Phase 2 (Filter Donation)

This is the second step done with the project Reach For Water 2018, which is the opening of the water filter in Galamuna Regional Hospital, which was installed with the aids of the Reach For Water Charity Run 2018.

Water is a basic necessity of human beings. But the people in Galamuna area were lack of this facility due to less rainfall and also they were in great need of clean water. This village has a high record of patients identified with kidney disease due to this problem. Hence our club identified the necessity of clean water to this area and organized the charity run to raise funds to install the water filter. 

It is such a pleasure to say that we were able to raise more than Rs.400 000 for this worthy cause. After that our sponsoring rotary club also helped us in making this aspiration a reality. with the help of the rotary club of kandy we were able to install water filter in the hospital and open it to the public for free of charge usage. People in this village pay money to buy water and they have to travel a lot of distance to get the water facility too. But with this installation of the water filter, it would be easy for the people in the village to get clean water free of charge. This phase 2 was concluded in a great manner while altering the future of villagers in Higurakgoda.
