Water Well Drilling Project
Prevention is often as simple as clean water, but it is expensive. Well
construction and equipment now costs an average of $3900.00 for a 150 foot deep
well. This equals approximately $26.00 per foot of depth. Here's my donation of
$26.00 for one foot of well depth.
Complete Water Well
Donors of one complete well will receive recognition on a bronze plaque in
the Mission Store in Creel. The complete well includes: perforation, (all
materials, labor and equipment costs necessary for drilling the well) casing,
brass cylinder, pipes and stainless steel rods, pump and base. Total cost:
$3,900.00
