Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, we are delighted to report on a year of impactful water and climate-smart agriculture projects that have helped many more vulnerable dryland communities to transform their own lives and thrive in the face of global health threats and climate change. By the end of March 2020, your support had helped to enable the construction of 1,194 sand dams, bringing clean water to over 1,103,000 people. Your support had also enabled the implementation of a range of environmental protection measures, including the planting of more than 1,140,000 trees, providing sources of food, shade, and fuel, whilst also helping to mitigate the effects of global warming. With highlights from all of our overseas programmes, we hope our Annual Report illustrates the impact of your investment in Sand Dams Worldwide’s [formerly Excellent Development's] projects and we are thankful to all of our supporters that continue to make this all possible.
