Our next program: I-WASH, $15,000,000 funded by USAID
The US Agency for International Development (USAID) awarded Agua del Pueblo and Global Communities a five-year grant to work in the departments (states) of Alta Verapaz, Huehuetenango, and Quiche. The program will also improve governance of local and central-level Water and Sanitation (WASH) systems. Additionally, we will enhance national and local government policies, plans, regulations, standards, budgets, and processes. AdP will receive $5,000,000 to build sustainable water supply and sanitation systems.
Sanik Ya and Chitulul, San Lucas Toliman
This project provided water for a future home of 100 families. The landowners couldn't live on their land because the water source was a kilometer away and 200 meters below in elevation. They were forced to rent property in San Lucas Toliman without potable water and sanitation. Now, the water is running and includes a SunSpring filter that removes contaminants down to 1 micron. The students of Furman University, Rotary clubs from San Jose and Watsonville, CA, and the People’s Consultants funded the project.
Recently Completed: Phase 1 of our Save the Laske Program
Santa Lucia Utatlan – The First Phase of the Atitlan Watershed Program
This project provided potable water and sanitation to Nuevo Progreso. We will also provide sanitation in Chocol. We retrofitted all the latrines to allow flushing. Sedimentation and bacteriological processes treat the wastewater. The liquid effluent will be used in agriculture. The project is funded by Rotary International and four Rotary clubs in three states: MN, CA, and SC.
Phase 2 of our Save the Lake Program:
Chuitzam and Chuiti Estancia
This project focuses on Chuitzam in Santa Lucia Utatlan and Chuiti Estancia in San Andres Semetabaj in the Department of Solola. It is a $200,000 effort for sanitation and water work in the upper elevations of the Lake Atitlan watershed. The goal is to clean Lake Atitlan. We are starting at the highest elevation in the watershed and working our way down. Providing water and sanitation to the 400,000 residents in the watershed will cost $40 million. We have a long way to go.
