Kilimahewa School Water Restoration Project

Dear Marco,

I trust this message finds you well. First and foremost, I want to extend our heartfelt congratulations to you, Gabriel, and Todd for your incredible achievement in successfully conquering Africa's highest peak, Mount Kilimanjaro. Your determination and resilience in the face of adversity are truly commendable, and we are proud to know individuals like you.

During your visit to Kilimahewa Modern Secondary School, we had the privilege of hosting you, and it was an honor to witness your unwavering spirit. Your presence left a lasting impact on our school community, and for that, we are immensely grateful.

Today, I am writing to you with a significant request—one that has the potential to change the lives of more than 200 students at our school and the families in our neighboring community. The issue at hand is the dire need for a new water well or borehole on our school premises.

Currently, we rely on an aging, solar-powered well that has served us well for many years. However, it can no longer meet the increasing water demands of our school, and unfortunately, the pump has ceased to function. This situation affects various aspects of our daily operations, from providing clean drinking water to preparing meals, maintaining hygiene, nurturing our gardens and trees, and even watering the flowers that beautify our school grounds. Life without is imaginable. 

We are reaching out to you in the hope that you might consider assisting us in raising funds for this vital water well project. The proposed well will provide a reliable and sustainable source of clean water to address the pressing needs of our students and the neighboring families who rely on us.

Here are the key aspects of the project:

1. Immediate Impact: With your support, we can commence this project and have water flowing within less than two weeks of securing the necessary funds.

2. Community Reach: Beyond our school, the benefits of this project will extend to our neighbors, improving their overall quality of life.

To facilitate your understanding of the project, we have attached a detailed budget that covers the hydrogeological survey, borehole digging, pump installation, and water tank installation. We have selected the most reasonable estimate to ensure efficient use of the funds.

We also extend an open invitation for you to revisit our school. Your presence would serve as a powerful reminder of the positive changes that can be achieved when individuals like you lend their support to noble causes.

In conclusion, we sincerely thank you for your consideration of our request. Your involvement in this endeavor would be transformative for our school and the community we serve. If you have any questions, require further information, or are ready to discuss how you can contribute, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Once again, congratulations on your remarkable achievement, and we look forward to the possibility of your support in bringing clean water to our school and the surrounding community.

Best regards,
