I did not know much about this family but as long as I got to their house on first day of my research, we were very happy to give one water pump to this family already as we visually can see that they are very poor and have a lot of children. We do hope that with this new water pump, it can give them a big relief especially to help the children not to to and collect the water from other areas to fill the jar for their parents and have free time to enjoy their childhood.

Mr. Ty was a former Buddhist monk, younger generation in our Buddhist monastery, I met him when he was a monk few years ago.

Number of People: 4 + many people
Location: in Sreth village
This family is far away from other villagers, they live among rice field as they do not have piece of land to build their house in the village. Their house is small but we like their fruitful garden, he is a very hard working man. the village leader inform us that, their house is the popular place for other villagers to come and rest during their farming season. So it is very helpful to give a water pump to them and we expect that the villagers who come to work in the rice-fields will be able to get water also.

They also have difficulty to get the water as their hand made well is old and polluted, so they request HVTO to install the water pump for them and for other two families using together.They are happy now to receive a new water pump from us and we do hope that their mood is stronger to help us whenever we need them to help like building school and tables etc.

This family is very helpful to other people in the village because the husband is just like the public person and he is the only key-man, They built their own water pump in the last ten years and it was broken few months ago.

By seeing this difficulty and our pump builder wanted to try one time to help this family, then they decided to build and it is a great luck that our pump builder did a great job as they could get the water for this big family. they are very happy and saying thank you very much to HVTO and donors to help them to have water to use for the whole family.

Thank You Letter for Mrs. Roxy Wells and Mr. Tyler Wells.
Dear Roxy and Tyler Wells,
I
am very much appreciated since the first donation that you made to my
cause (HVTO.ORG) when you were in Cambodia and your water pump is in
service for the big family in Sreth village. The family is always
grateful and sends you the best wishes and many blessings.
I
am writing this letter is to extend my thousand of thanks for you both,
for coming to get involved with our NGO. Your last fundraising campaign
has resulted of installation of ten water pumps in our community and
this is the great news for our people who are in the waiting list. So I
never say no to people who want to help me with this project.
The
village development committee and HVTO team were working close together
to bring these water pumps for the very neediest families, who are
having difficulty to get clean water to use for everyday lives. As shown
in the pictures that ten families ( = 73 people) have received the
water pumps and are using them directly and there are lot of neighboring
families will share the water pumps also.
So
again and again, I would like to wish you to stay healthy, enjoying
with life and get successful with what you do. And please remember that
our people in Sophy and Sreth community especially me myself are always
very grateful to you and have you in our heart for that you have done a
great thing for us here.
With best regards
Sim Piseth
HVTO founder
