Our source has a name

Yesterday, our well in Shantie Bamba received its name. The realisation of this well was only possible thanks to the sponsorship of the ‘Larry Foundation’. We would therefore like to sincerely thank Laurens Vanthoor for the support through his organisation. Laurens has since informed us that we may continue to count on his support in the future. Would you like to contribute too? Gladly, we can use all the help we can get. Many drops fill a glass... If you want to support us, please contact us!

Water brings live !!

On February 10, 2025, we visited our project in Shantie Bamba. We could see for ourselves that the well in this village has caused a real revolution. The inhabitants have built a large vegetable garden around the well and grow various vegetables such as potatoes, tomatoes, corn, salad, eggplants, carrots and so on. Since the water is at a depth of 30 meters, with the help of “The Larry Foundation” we installed a water pump that runs on solar energy. This, of course, makes it much easier for the residents to irrigate their gardens. They also built a fence around the garden with their own funds to prevent wild animals from destroying their crops.

A new source of life !

Finally, after months of toil and toil we managed to reach water at a depth of 30 meters ! Initially, we had hoped to find water at 14 meters. We had to go a lot deeper than expected, but we succeeded: From now on, the village of Santhie Bamba, with 400 inhabitants, has drinkable water.

Linssen Yachts donates €6.102 to "Water for Toubacouta"

**Linssen Yachts donates €6,102 to Water for Toubacouta!** On Friday, November 15, 2024, Linssen Yachts from Maasbracht celebrated the conclusion of their special 75th anniversary year. Throughout this festive year, the family business raised funds for three charities: Stichting Kinderhulp, Maas Cleanup, and our project *Water for Toubacouta*. For every jubilee edition yacht sold, Linssen Yachts made a donation to these charities. Additionally, they encouraged their customers to support the projects further. Thanks to this incredible initiative, we received a cheque worth an impressive **€6,102**! We are deeply grateful for this contribution. This donation will likely enable us to provide two villages in the Toubacouta region with much-needed water wells. This is no longer just a drop in the ocean but a significant step forward for the communities in this area. On behalf of the people of Toubacouta: **Thank you, Linssen Yachts!** Together, we are building a future where access to clean drinking water is no longer a luxury but a basic right for everyone. 💧✨
