Wells for Water Print E-mail

The KSC National Action Project was the most ambitious yet undertaken by the Order. Its aim; in conjunction with the Christian Aid charities CAFOD and SCIAF; was to provide the equivalent of at least 2000 bore-wells, supplying fresh clean water where none exists at present, in Africa and India. This was seen as a tangible way of marking the 2000 years since the birth of Christ and as a consequence the project was called The Jubilee Experience. Thanks to the generosity of local Council members, their families, friends, schools and members of the community in general, the three year target figure set by Supreme Council in 1998, was exceeded in 18 months.

However, the project realised a total of £277,000 for the full three years; with all the proceeds raised being used to provide safe clean water, essential for human survival.

The work on this lifesaving project will bring the precious gift of water to some of the world's poorest communities.
