Water Well Project in Cambodia
Share the Gift of Clean Water
Access to clean, safe drinking water is a fundamental human right. Yet in Cambodia, countless families face daily struggles due to undrinkable tap water contaminated with dangerously high levels of arsenic. This crisis puts the health and lives of vulnerable communities at risk, especially those with limited financial resources.
The Australian Relief Organisation (ARO) has been at the forefront of addressing this critical issue through our Water Well Project in Cambodia.
The Impact of Water Wells
Since the project began, ARO has successfully established 74 water wells as of April 2021. Each well, costing $5,000, serves as a lifeline for rural communities, providing:
Safe Drinking Water: A clean and reliable water source to reduce the consumption of contaminated water.
Improved Health: Mitigating risks of waterborne illnesses, fatalities, stillbirths, and chronic health issues caused by arsenic poisoning.
Support for Daily Needs: Access to water for household use, sanitation, and irrigation—transforming daily life for families and communities.
Why This Project is Crucial
Many rural communities in Cambodia depend entirely on water wells for their daily water consumption. Without them, families are left with few options but to consume unsafe water, perpetuating a cycle of illness and hardship. By building these wells, we not only provide access to clean water but also instill hope for a healthier, more sustainable future.
