New Project to Bring Safe Water to Rural Georgia Households
The Water Well Trust, a national nonprofit helping Americans get access to safe water, has received a second $140,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Household Water Well Systems program for a project to increase potable water availability to rural households in six Georgia counties.
The Water Well Trust will contribute a $56,000 match towards the project. The funds were donated by Water Systems Council members at the 2015 WSC Fall Members' Meeting fundraising golf tournament and auction.
