Construction on the large Las Minas, Honduras project is well underway. This large water system will benefit four communities and 700 people. When we visited in April, construction of the spring cap and sand trap was nearly complete. The community members had also extended extended the 4.5 mile long transmission pipeline from the mountain spring water source within a quarter mile of the first community’s storage tank.
Macana Carcamo, a grandmother from the community of Valle de la Cruz, is participating in the construction work for her community's new water project.
Macana Carcamo, a grandmother pictured above, is proud of her contribution to the construction of the Las Minas project. So far she has worked 37 days on the project, watering the concrete pylons that support the transmission pipeline while they are curing.
