Gilbert & The Gazelle Foundation
In 2006, Gilbert wrote This Voice in My Heart, an autobiographical account of his upbringing and his tale of survival. The response to this touching book was overwhelming, creating an outpouring of people who wanted to help. The solution is through the Gazelle Foundation where Gilbert, our dynamic board of directors, and hundreds of volunteers work tirelessly to bring awareness to the needs of the Burundian people while educating our local community about the importance of the global water crisis and the need for humanitarian aid in Burundi.
And the story continues to this day. Learn more about Why Water Matters, and how Gazelle Foundation builds clean water systems in Burundi.
Learn more about the Gazelle Foundation’s first water system the Bibuye-Fuku Songa system built to serve a community of the Batwa (Twa) tribe. The Twa community is one of the most marginalized tribes in Burundi and makes up only 1% of the total population. By bringing clean water to this village, the residents now have a different life, and most importantly, hope.
This project shows how practical positive measures can make critical differences in the lives of others.
The water system has changed the lives of 3,500 people in the community it serves, and the lives of everyone who relies on the Horezo health center. This system, our 15th in Burundi, has been operating since 2014. See our impact.
