The request:
From: SOPAR
To Coup de Coeur Foundation
Dear Mr. Gagnon and Mrs. Lahmami,
Sincere greetings from Warangal India.
I come again to appeal to your Foundation for a grant application of $ 9,400 for the installation of two water filtration systems and the construction of the buildings that will house them.
These are the villages of Khatgaon and Devakkapalli in India and the number of beneficiaries will be 3 155.
I am enclosing to my request the touching testimony of one of the future beneficiaries I met during the inauguration of the Hasgul water purification system, a project that was made possible thanks to your donor friends Jean-Pierre and Georgette Beaudoin.
This woman's name is Sita, she is about 25 years old and she comes from one of the lowest castes in India. Sita can not read or write, so I put on paper what she told me when I met her:
"I had three children, two boys and a girl. Last year, my youngest son died from violent diarrhea and we did not have the necessary medications to help him. We know that these disasters are due to contaminated water but how to do without drinking? Today, we are fortunate to have people far from here who offer us the opportunity to get a water filtration system.
We will have better health and therefore a better future''.
Sita's child died from problems with ingesting contaminated water and her parents, who had neither the money nor the health knowledge, could help her.
Your generosity and that of your donors are saving lives and giving hope for a better future.
Thank you for your continued support.
