In Kourga, Burkina Faso, Wendinmi Frédéric Ouédraogo, president of the special delegation of Zonsé, recognized six local volunteers and donors for their work to provide water to the Kourga Health and Social Promotion Center (CSPS).
The CSPS, which opened on April 11, 2026, initially struggled with water access, impacting its operations. Local volunteers responded by transporting water to the center using tanks and jugs.
Two Kourga residents living abroad then funded the construction of a complete well for the CSPS, aiming for a lasting solution to the water shortage. Ouédraogo praised these efforts as examples of community commitment to local development and encouraged residents to continue similar initiatives. The head of the CSPS, Harouna Guebré, thanked the authorities, volunteers, and donors for improving conditions at the health center.
The village chief and the president of the local youth group both pledged to help maintain the well and keep public spaces clean, ensuring the community benefits from the new water source.
