The Mali Assistance Project (MAP) was founded in 1999 to help the villagers of Foutaka Zambougou, Mali, West Africa and surrounding areas to survive immediate crises of famine, drought and disease, and to build a sustainable infrastructure for their future health and economic stability.
The hard work and planning efforts of village residents, along with financial help from donors like you, have enabled the villagers to remain in their homes and avert starvation (at least for now). With expert advice from organizations such as Engineers without Borders-USA, International Development Enterprises, the University of Colorado Department of Engineering, the Peace Corps, and many others – we are planning to improve water quality, dig deeper wells, install water purification systems, build irrigation systems for crops, outfit a local medical facility, create microenterprise development, and expand elementary education for village children.
But now, the implementation of these plans is threatened by worsening drought, continued crop failure, and lack of financial resources. Your immediate help in the form of financial donations is urgently needed to support these resourceful people in turning their sensible plans for self-sustainability into reality.
