Today is a day of joy and satisfactory to see the water purification machine has been installed in Rigaud School that is one of the 11 villages that Star of hope has development cooperation work. The machine has been given to Star of hope last December by Gustaff, a young Swedish guy, in order to provide good drinking water to people in need in Haiti. It was taking time to find funds to build the water kiosk to install machine and pipe. The construction of this water kiosk had started two months ago, the kiosk of 20 feet high and 7 feet width is made of cement bloc walls and wood and tin roof. The construction cost more than $10,000.00 included all installations pipe, electric and supplies and water purification machine. Today is inauguration day of the drinking water project, more than 700 people were present to the inaugural ceremony, children of the school and parents are the first beneficiaries of the drinking water so they are the most thankful to all donors that give contribution of money and materials to make this project possible in the community of Rigaud that was in great need of safe drinking waterfor not getting infected by cholera disease that already killed more than 5000 people in Haiti. children and parents had a opportunity to drink the purified water for the first time today during the inauguration ceremony and many people in the community came today to full gallons and bucket of purified water in the kiosk to go home to drink. Thank you again to all donors for assistance of all kind to provide safe water to the population in Rigaud.
