The well was drilled in the rural community El Ocho. El Ocho has a population of approximately 120. The well site is located at the edge of a large field adjacent to the community. Upon completion the well was set at a depth of 90’ and is producing 50 gallons per minute.
The clean water is pumped up to a 1320-gallon tank that sits on top of a 12’ high tower next to the well. Water from the well will serve 100% of population. The well drilling team consisted of Erik Beishir, Mark Clements, Rigo Andino, and Juan Rosales. The Outreach/VBS was led by Amanda Andino, Adrian Andino and Anthony Andino. VBS attendance ranged between 20 and 25 children for each of the days held.
