Our Solution of Building a Well in Each Community Will:
Help provide a better education. Children will be healthier and will not miss school. It will also increase the enrollment rate especially for girls because these girls will no longer need to travel miles away to fetch water from the river or lake with their moms. Once the well is operational, the girls would be free to attend school which would be a great advancement and many more future opportunities as the result of a “Water Well.”
Provide safe and clean drinking water which in return will help eliminate diseases. Many diseases can be prevented by having the means to simply wash your hands. Children as well as adults can reduce the likelihood of disease with basic hygiene.
Provide irrigation for crops which in return will help provide for families and animals. A great advancement for crops and farmers, young and old alike, with never ending opportunities for agricultural advancement for the villages. Various world organization’s claim of food shortages for the next 30 years gives a more urgent need for a “water well”.
Bring families closer. Women will spend less time getting water meaning more time to spend with family.
Bring happiness and relief not to mention the spiritual uplifting of one’s spirit.
We Need Your Help
AFF received many requests for Water Wells as the need is great. Our resources are limited as a “Water Well” typically cost between $7,000.00 and $10,000.00 depending on the depth, etc.
The girls will get to go to school and advance accordingly, the boys will advance their education as well as their agricultural skills. The results are quick and obvious.
We thank you in advance for all donations regardless of the amount. You will be given information on where your “Well” will be located.
Thank you.
Testimonials
Why I Give to AFF’s Water Well Projects
I donate to African Future Farmers’ Water Well Project because I believe that clean drinking water should be accessible to everyone. AFF removes the barrier of accessibility by building wells in villages that would otherwise not have cleaning drinking water. Water is a necessity that no human should have to go without. I will continue to support AFF’s Water Well Project to be a part of providing a necessity to those in need.
Tonda Byers
Why I Give to AFF’s Water Well Projects
I am more passionate about children having access to clean water and allow them to dream bigger for their future. My dream is to change the pattern and narrative that have been written about those children who lack access to clean water so that different stories can be told of them.
Espoir Tomenou
Why We Give to AFF’s Water Well Projects
The effects of providing safe water are well established, improving the health and future of an entire community! There are other nonprofits helping communities with safe water, but we support AFF because we personally know Espoir Tomenou. We cannot travel to Benin so we trust Espoir and his regular travel to and direct involvement with AFF projects. We are motivated to give by God’s love for us, and we know Espoir is similarly motivated in his love for the people of Benin.
We encourage you to join with us in supporting AFF and their water well projects!

Ray Kowalski
Why I Give to AFF’s Water Well Projects
These are the reasons I choose to donate to African Future Farmers (A.F.F) for the “Water Well” Project in Benin. Access to clean water is necessary because it affects many areas of our daily lives. You need it to drink, cook, clean, wash clothes, and for personal hygiene. These are only a few ways that you could utilize clean water. I was born and raised in the USA, which provided me the convenience of only turning on the faucet for water when needed. Some might take it for granted because this might be the only experience that they have in their lives. Luckily, I’ve traveled outside of my country to be able to live through other people’s daily lives. I’m grateful because it enabled me to appreciate the small things in my life because not everyone has the same access to water as I do.
I plan to continually contribute to A.F.F because of the commitment of this non-profit organization to the people in Africa. Doing this allows A.F.F to expand the amount of “Water Wells” they can build, which benefits the communities that utilize them daily. The women and young girls who have to travel long distances for water would feel the most significant impact. With access to water closer to their village, they can spend that additional time in other areas of their lives.
Roberta Bouyer
Why I Give to AFF’s Water Well Projects
We take for granted and don’t realize that water is a scarce and essential resource for all of us. I have known Espoir for a very long time and I’m amazed by his passion to give back to the society and his empathy for the people around him. When I got to know about his Water Well initiative, I was excited to be part of it and help the people who are deprived of a basic necessity for living.
Aditya Karumoori
Why I Give to AFF’s Water Well Projects
Throughout my life, I have understood the meaning of struggle and sacrifice and even still I recognize there are many things I take for granted that others don’t have. I give to AFF because I want to create opportunity where others struggle. If I have the ability to help others, then there is no question of if I will do it. Especially when it doesn’t cost me much at all.
Everyone deserves access to clean water and this project can provide that in Benin.
