Like many places in the world, clean water is a critical need in Conevisa. For years the only water source in the village was a water truck that would come to the town every eight days to fill drums scattered throughout the village. This source of water was not adequate, and with the environment, the water was not clean, leading to many health problems.

​

God placed on the heart of a volunteer team member, Chance Hill, the desire to help bring hope to the people of Conevisa by providing an adequate source of clean water. Chance returned to Alabama and set about raising funds for the project. He hosted fundraising dinners and even spent two weeks riding horseback across the state of Alabama with his father to raise awareness and donations.

An attempt was made to refurbish an old abandoned well near Conevisa. Water lines were installed to carry water to houses in the village, and people were blessed to have clean water available right in their home. Unfortunately the system did not stay in operation long due to the problems believed to be related to a drop in the water table in the area. Also, there have been extended stretches of drought and insufficient rainfall in the area. The well was vandalized and has been closed off now. We are in desperate need of funds and experts to assess the situation and help us find a way to bring water to Conevisa.
