Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

The mountains of Sinai are a fabulously beautiful place, with rocky valleys dotted with ancient Bedouin gardens. Due to years of draught the gardens are slowly dying and the Bedouin are being forced to give up their sustainable way of life at the same time as work is scarce.  However a small dam high up the valleys can store the modest amounts of rain that come occasionally and make a difference to 30 gardens and 30 families below. The series of small dams built by the Makhad Trust are making a big difference to this lovely people. Thank you for donating for materials to build Gwoona Dam.
