Rotary Club of Ladner takes lead in running water project for Laos village
In remote villages of Laos, considered the most bombed country in history where one-third of the population was killed during a 20-year civil war, lack of access to clean water is both a health problem and a barrier to education for many children.
The village of Ban Xiengda has running water for the first time, allowing children and women to trade off time and energy for hauling water uphill over great distance for school and other family essential activities, thanks to the Rotary Club of Ladner and other clubs in B.C. and Ontario, including the Rotary Club of Tsawwassen.
