Tax-deductable donations to the Well Fund from US individuals support the drilling of "bore holes" in the Kenyan bush country known as Maasailand. In the Ngong Hills region the average bore hole depth is approximately 600 feet. The estimated cost to drill a well is $30,000, which does not include the pump, cistern and diesel generator. MCEP funded our first well drilling in December 2005, and received funding for a second well in June 2006. The first wells to be built will directly benefit the Maasai in the vicinity of Olosho-oibor.

Please make your check payable to MCEP, and designate your donation in support of the Well Fund.
