6th MCC well drilled in South Sudan

Thanks to the MCC community, MCC's Holocaust, Genocide, & Human Rights Project has sponsored the drilling of another well in South Sudan. Located at the Atido Primary Health Care Unit, the well, the sixth the project has helped fund, is dedicated to Rochester's Holocaust survivors in honor of the project's 30th year.

Since 2005, MCC's #HGHR P has raised money to support Water for South Sudan, which was founded by MCC alumnus Salva Dut. Each day, hundreds of thousands of Sudanese walk for hours through the desert to collect water that is often contaminated with parasites and bacteria. Water for South Sudan drills wells that help prevent disease and bring peace to villages - and the people who live there. We are proud of our #HGHR P members and donors who continue to exhibit their dedication to making South Sudan -- and the world -- a better place.
