About Us:(Short Version) |

|
|
|
|
Alive & Well are a small Westcountry based charity set up in early 2009 to take direct action to save lives in Sierra Leone.... |
|
|
|
|
|
There are 12 trustees running Alive & Well some of whom will crew the first phase... |
|
|
|
|
|
Drill water bore-holes to provide safe water. Train local crews, help them set up small enterprises and loan them the equipment to make a living drilling more wells... |

|
First phase completed - first rig to Sierra Leone in October 2010 and the first crew trained |
|
|
|
Second phase starting: recruiting a new group to raise funds to take themselves and a rig to Sierra Leone - Also the provision of a living wage for the crew in Sierra Leone (our first crew named ‘Orange Crew’ after the Rig colour) |
|
|
|
|
|
Your donations and support to reach a target of £1,100 per month on an on-going basis for the crew and drilling activities and £15,000 for generating the next UK group to begin fundraising for our next rig and expedition provisionally planned for 2012 |
|
|
|
|
|
1. Local crew wages and the materials and pumps to drill free wells for the most impoverished communities in Sierra Leone. |
|
|
|
|
2. Advertising and promotional activities to generate the next group if people who will eventually take a second rig to Sierra Leone... |
||
|
What about admin and other costs ? |
||
|
98% of the funds raised goes directly to the project - to the work itself. There are no paid workers, we are all volunteers. We do everything ourselves (including this website) to keep costs down! |
