Donation Page
Please visit IvanandIvon.com to send your donations for this well project. It is vital that you help since other major organizations like World Vision and Compassion International cannot find a way to build wells in Nigeria. Our inside connections have given us favor to begin the project. Once the project is complete, we will concentrate again in Afikpo.
Water Well Project Nigeria
Currently, we are still trying to secure our partnership with WIN (Water Initiatives Nigeria). We have decided to change gears a little and partner with Merchants of Light School, Oba, Idemmili South Local Government Area, Anambra State, Nigeria. The well will be built at the school site in Oba. One of our board members Mabel Obi, of Global Impact, is returning to Nigeria in December 2012 and she will visit the site and connect with WIN. We will be having a fundraiser event in Discovery Bay, CA in February 2013.

Well Project
Dear Supporters:
Currently, Ivan & Ivon Charities is pursuing a well project in Afikpo, Nigeria. This is a region in the Ebonyi state which has no clean water, is infested with the Malaria mosquito, has poor farming land, and has a very low survival rate. Our charity is trying to collaborate and connect with the local government of Afikpo to get approval for our well project. A bore hole well is the only option for clean water for thousands of people in the villages in Afikpo.
I stayed in Afikpo for a month and saw first hand how the need for clean water, treated Malaria nets, better fertilized land, and much more. Although the people of Afikpo are very joyful, they have many basic needs that are not being met but they are making the best of it.
Please come along side us and help. Send your donations to:
Ivan & Ivon Charities P.O. Box 1517, Discovery Bay, CA 94505-2231
