Updates on Operation Safe Drinking Water

Posted by Dreama Lee on June 18th, 2012

We want to sincerely thank all those who contributed to Operation Safe Drinking Water. We raised nearly $2500. Enough to install two water catchment systems as well as a sizable amount to buy school supplies, first aid kits, etc. for the local school.

As part of our own efforts we took Stella and Sebastian shopping for some of the school supplies while we were in Boquete so that they could begin to understand what we are about to do and be a part of the entire process. Operation Safe Drinking Water will be purchasing the bulk of the school supplies, first aid kits, etc. from the remaining donations in a week and transporting it all to the installation site.

Shopping for School Supplies for Operation Safe Drinking Water

We will be installing the two water catchment systems on June 28. We will be joined by Justin’s Dad, Wellington Lee, who was able to come into town to help us with the efforts.

Preparations are under way by the village as they are laying the concrete that the water catchments systems will be installed upon.

Special thanks to those who donated and will have their names written on the tanks when we install them on June 28.
