This resource is essenziale to improving residents’ health, nutrizione, e igiene—critical elements determining their survival and overall well-being.
We are in the middle of our second testing round, which will last another week. Unfortunately, during this phase so far, our expectations have not been met due to insufficient water flow to meet the needs of a deprived e isolato village community. To overcome this, alternative measures such as continuing to forare il nostro last 50-meter deep well are being considered.
We will now start foratura again, but slowly, little by little. No more than three meters further into the ground while conducting direct assessments; we are committed until we find a suitable water supply source for these families who are now part of ours.
We express our sincere gratitude to all of you as we stand at a critical juncture, brimming with positivity e resilienza. As a close-knit community battling many obstacles, we remain firmly convinced that success is inevitable – just as it has been before.

After Months of Drilling in Laindatang, Fair Future Tests New Water Wells
For over five months, Fair Future Foundation has been drilling wells in Laindatang, one of the world’s most arid regions.
Since August 9, 2024, we have been testing the wells we’ve drilled, a crucial step toward ensuring access to water for local communities.
Yesterday, we captured a series of original photos on the site of the Water Connections project, where we have been working for over five months on fase 3 in Laindatang. Since February 15, 2024, we have been here daily, foratura with our machine to find water in one of the world’s driest regions. It’s an exhausting task, both physically and mentally, in conditions where every drop of water is precious.
Today, August 9, we are in the testing phase. Un futuro giusto acquired a 1.5 HP pump this week to test the three wells we have drilled since February. The work is far from easy. The roads here are impassable per cars and trucks as the Truck of Life. However, we managed to bring our trucks to the site, including our water tanker truck, because, paradoxically, much water is needed for drilling. This was made possible by the construction, by hand, of a nearly eight-kilometre path and by the fortunate timing of the dry season, which allows us to pass through the fields.
We are currently testing the fori. Evaluating the results and deciding on the next steps will take another week. The initial tests show we must continue drilling, as the water flow remains insufficient. The struggle continues so that the families of Laindatang e Hambarita can have more water and hope for a better life. We are not giving up and remain Determinato to continue this fight.
