goal
In memory of our beloved Peter we are celebrating his life by drilling a well and giving the gift of life to others
This is the second project I am sponsoring, and it is in memory of dad I am doing this. We are looking to sponsor a well project in the Sahel region in Africa. As you know, dad was a great lover of Africa and I thought this would be a great way to honour his legacy.
If you’re like me, you don’t spend too much time thinking about water -- it’s everywhere we go. When we’re thirsty, we flip a handle or push a button. When we’re dirty, we twist a shower knob. When our garden needs watering, when our pasta needs to be boiled, when we use the bathroom -- water is just an arm's length away.
But, in many developing countries, women and children walk for hours, up and down mountains, just to collect water that can make them really sick.
Help me play a small part in solving the water crisis -- donate to my campaign.
100% of everything we raise will directly fund water projects. And when those projects are finished, charity: water will send us proof in pictures and GPS coordinates, so we can see the actual people and communities we impacted.
Dearest family and friends,
I hope you are all doing well. Apologies for the radio silence and for not having emailed you sooner on this, but I am writing to let you know that your extremely generous donation in memory of our dear Peter has gone to very good use as the projects are now complete!
As we raised $12,000, which was in excess of the $10,000 target for a single project, your contributions have also gone to help with 2 other projects. You can find more information here:

In total we have contributed to providing clean water to 3 communities and a total of 1,425 people, which is quite an achievement.
On our side, Katinka and I have been very busy with grandmother and father duties, as my little son Pietro was born on April 17 of this year. If any of you pass by London please get in touch as I would love to see you!
Anyway, I just wanted to thank you to all so much for your very generous contributions. I know dad is up there smiling at us.
Big hug,
Giovanni
In memory of our dear cousin and good friend, Peter. How we miss you!!! From the Trimbles --
