Dear Della Villagers,

Hello. I hope this message finds you well. My name is Neel Parekh. My family is originally from Junagadh and Rajkot in Gujurat -- not far from your own homes. My parents moved to the US in the 1960s. I was born here in the US and now live in New York City. I am 30 years old.

I recently heard about the projects that SEWA and Citizen Effect / 1Well have found in and around Gujurat, including the water and sanitation project in your village. My family and I decided to help out some of our fellow Gujuratis by collecting money to help you build your project. Hopefully by the end of this year we can send you that money. A clean and reliable source of water and a functioning santitation system will help you and your families live a healthier and more comfortable life.
