Serving the Needs of Sudanese with Limited Access to Drinkable Water Presented by Mr. Rosentel

History of the Problem The southern part of Sudan, Africa’s largest country, has a 6-month dry season. In this dry season, daily temperatures are often higher than 120 degrees.

History of the Problem Millions of people from southern Sudan – especially women and children – must travel many miles to gather water from ponds, marshes, ditches, or hand-dug wells. The water they collect is often filled with parasites and bacteria.

History of the Problem Unclean water has added to Sudan’s problems, which include a civil war between the Arab government in the north and the black Sudanese in the south from 1983 to In this civil war 30,000 “Lost Boys” – orphaned Sudanese boys – walked over 1,000 miles to Kenya to escape the war Although the war has ended, violence continues in the region.

Current Status of the Problem Women and children walking to find water risk rape and murder every day.

Current Status of the Problem Drinking unclean water continues to cause disease and death. The United Nations reported that 36% of hospitalizations come from parasites in dirty water.

Water for Sudan Water for Sudan is an organization based in Rochester, New York that drills wells to help the people of southern Sudan drink clean water. Water for Sudan was founded by Salva Dut, a former “Lost Boy” who survived the civil war. Each well provides clean water for an entire village of up to 1,000. These wells reduce the risk of rape, disease, and death for each villager.

Water for Sudan Volunteers and professionals from Water for Sudan pair with villagers to build wells. Water for Sudan and villagers have drilled 76 wells as of May By helping build and maintain the well, villagers help transform their own lives.
