Women across The Gambia love what ChildFund did with their new water systems. These farmers asked for extra help to make their gardens bigger and grow more food. The local group Foni Ding Ding Federation teamed up with ChildFund to put wells in many places. These wells made water easy to reach for everybody nearby.
Over fifty women who farm veggies at Badume Koto depend on their gardens for their livelihood. Binta Keita farms there and thanks ChildFund a lot for their help. She mentioned that they still need places to store their crops. Musa Kebba runs the village committee and said that before these wells came, women faced huge problems finding water.
Sixty women are working in that garden right now. They can't make the garden bigger because the fence breaks easily. They only plant onions because animals might eat other vegetables. Musa said they feel grateful for the water but really need better fences. He asked the government and kind people to step up with support.
The well at Bafuloto helped more than one hundred fifty women farmers. Their leader, Isatou Sanyang, talked about how animals used to wreck their gardens through broken fences. ChildFund fixed that problem with new fences and the well. The women still need seeds and tools. They sell some veggies to pay school costs for their kids.
Ebrima Sonko works as a community helper with the Sama Kairo Federation. He has noticed big improvements since his team stepped in. The women struggled badly before, but his team found what they needed most. He promised the women they would handle their current problems with garden tools. His team plans to fix these issues together.
ChildFund built another well at Tendaba village, where Manneh Sanneh lives. She explained they used to lack water from early morning until late afternoon. That changed completely after ChildFund showed up. Water runs whenever they turn on the tap. The nursery school connects to this system, letting children drink anytime they want.
Sajor Trawally keeps records for Tendaba village and says everyone benefits from the well. Taps work at seven spots around town. The most important places with taps include the mosque, market, and school. These locations serve both adults and kids who need water. Sajor expressed thanks to ChildFund for helping them out.
The organization also helped folks start a backyard garden project somewhere else in Foni and supported animal-raising efforts in Jambanjelly. Their work touches many communities beyond just these water projects. The impact spreads across different regions where people need similar assistance.
