CMT Clean water project
Catholic Mission Trips is excited to embark on our first Clean Water Project in Bolivia!
The Huamuni River in Bolivia has been used by mining companies as a place to drain contaminated water for years. Unfortunately that contaminated water is washed downstream and has contaminated land and water supplies for the local people. In response to growing conflict over environmental degradation and public health problems, the Government of Bolivia in 2009 declared an emergency zone in the Huanuni watershed (a first in Bolivian history).
It is our hope to be able to send a used truck mounted water drilling rig to Bolivia to help the villagers downstream have relief from contaminated water. Cost to purchase a drilling rig, ship it to Bolivia and train the local people how to use it will be around $50,000 – $60,000 US dollars.
