Mabel joined with KRFK/Brooklyn Music Lab, Catharsis Arts Foundation, Malala Fund, and Rahela Trust to broadcast a concert at Atelier Jolie to women and girls attending underground schools in Afghanistan. She played two of her original songs. It was unforgettable.
Here's to An Enemy of the People, a play set in Norway about a doctor who is silenced after he exposes contamination of the town's water supply. We made a custom potholder, inspired by the Norwegian flag, for the play's director who is an avid cook and baker.
It seems fitting to celebrate the Year of the Rabbit by championing the tireless commitment, ingenuity, community-building, and follow-through of the Team at H2O for Life.
We just received this update from the project we supported last year:
In 2022, our implementing partner, DigDeep’s, Appalachia Water Project (AWP) completed its first piped water project while also expanding in both scope and scale. The DigDeep team connected homes to water and sewage lines and began innovating off-grid solutions for remote households so that no family is left behind.
“I’m so happy that water’s turned on; I don’t know what to do! I can’t see nothing but good things coming.”
-Donna, DigDeep AWP Client
AWP began wastewater projects, for both piped sewer and onsite systems. Many of these projects began over 2022, and we look forward to their completion in 2023!
DigDeep conducts surveys with each served household before and after the project. Valuable client input is gathered through these surveys to guide and measure project success.
90 FAMILIES WITH PIPED WATER
74 HOUSEHOLDS PREPARED FOR SEWER ACCESS
400 CLIENT SURVEYS Collected by field staff this year
