Thanks to the generosity of 5 donors, Kaputeni Chisi Village was fully funded on June 2, 2026, and the well was successfully drilled on June 24, 2026. The pump has been installed and the village is already drawing clean water from it. A formal pump blessing and official handover with Father Petros are forthcoming. This is the first time Kaputeni Chisi Village has ever had access to fresh, clean water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eBefore this well, the 440 residents of Kaputeni Chisi Village had no access to safe drinking water. The only water source was a shallow, muddy water hole where residents had to crouch at the eroded bank to scoop brown, contaminated water into buckets and containers. The water was shared with livestock, and this area was at high risk for cholera and other waterborne diseases, presenting severe health risks to the entire community. The village sits beside a Catholic prayer center, one of 50 prayer centers in Father Petros's parish. A prayer center is a church without a full-time priest. Learners and teachers at the nearby primary school and parishioners at the prayer center all depended on this same contaminated water source.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Water of Mercy","offers":[{"title":"Village Water Well Donation","offer_id":46196044562629,"sku":null,"price":1.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0712\/0859\/9749\/files\/KAPUTENI-CHISI-PHOTO-2026-06-24-10-17-33_2.jpg?v=1782410743","url":"https:\/\/waterofmercy.com\/products\/kaputeni-chisi-village-well-project","provider":"Water of Mercy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
