Building a world where all people can be happy

Grant to Amizade

   

Clean Water is the foundation of healthy diet, hygiene, and sanitation. In Karagwe, Tanzania, water is scarce, and the cheapest, most simple, and most effective solution to the Karagwe water shortage is the construction of rooftop water harvesting systems. Amizade is in the middle of a 3-year program to install a minimum of 36 water harvesting systems, with labor and materials provided by local and global volunteers. The first $10,000 grant from the AllPeopleBeHappy foundation in 2008 led to the installation of the first 6 water-harvesting systems, and the second $10,000 grant for '09-'10 will be used to accelerate the construction efforts.  (www.amizade.org)

Update - Friday, February 26, 2010

 

We have initiated an AllPeopleBeHappy Volunteer Service Grant.  Dedicated overseas volunteers not only donate their time, but they have to pay their own expenses and often are expected to contribute to the cost of supplies and services.  We will be offering matching grants to help offset these expenses.  For the Summer 2010 awards, organizations currently receiving AllPeopleBeHappy foundation grants have been invited to submit applicants.
