Water Project #1

This project is located in Nicaragua, the community is rural, called Amatitan, located in the city of La Paz Centro, department of Leon.

This is a population that is dedicated to cultivation,production of mud bricks, for construction, producers of raw material for the construction of typical ranches made with African palm, tiles, tree trunks. Amatitan has a population of approximately 260 families. 

This is a VERY poor community. There is no public transportation and families commute by horse carriage, bicycle, and walking. Each family had running water for 2 hours each day. One part of the community in the morning and the other in the afternoon.  Water is a basic human need and it’s tough to imagine being in such a hot climate and having such limited access.

In this project we purchased a huge 22,000L tank that will provide the community with running drinking water. We also put in a purifying system, built a concrete base to support, and piped it into the system.

I am happy to be able to provide everything needed and give jobs to the workers that made this project happen.

I will be building a playground for the children as a second half of this project. Nothing about this has been easy- from getting the permits to the tank out there.

Jonatan Eli Espinoza Perez has been a true hero in working besides me as an artist and humanitarian and I’m very grateful to have such a relationship with such a good soul who can make impactful differences in the world with me.
