Benicia Well Project

Ric Small, volunteer chaplain at Liberty High School, and Larry Davis, generations pastor at Northgate Christian Fellowship, have returned from two weeks in Uganda, an experience Small described as “devastation, with a glimmer of hope.”

Small said the trip “would forever shape our perception of the difference between need and greed.”

After seeing the water sources where thousands of people take water everyday - they knew that something significant could be done with the help from their community. A hundred thousand people's lives can be changed with YOUR help. By providing access to fresh water through the Benicia Well Project:

• Thousands will have access to fresh water
• Dysentery and other preventable and treatable diseases will be significantly reduced
• People will be saved from dehydration
• Children, mainly girls will be able to attend school
• Children will not miss their lessons because they are not out looking for water
• Children will be saved from men hiding in the bushes looking to hurt them
• Mothers can stay at home with their families
• Hundreds of "work-hours" will be created
• Deathly snake bites will be reduced from fetching water in the bushes
• Child drownings will decrease
• Thousands of people will now have hope through the love of Jesus Christ
