– Report on follow-up observations of Darvish Yu Water Fund projects
So far, the Darvish Yu Water Fund has implemented 15 projects with the contribution of Darvish Yu and others. We have made follow-up observations with our local partners in order to understand the current and changing situations at two of our project sites. At both sites, No. 11 (Thailand, 2017) and No. 12 (Pakistan, 2018), we confirmed that the facilities constructed with the Fund’s support are still working well and are being properly maintained and managed by the beneficiaries. In addition to an improvement in water and sanitation conditions at the project sites, the learning environment for students has also improved. The beneficiaries again expressed their gratitude for the Water Fund’s support.
We would like to thank Mr. Darvish, all of our donors, local partner organizations, residents of the target areas, and the many others who have contributed to the Fund.
