Betsileo Development, a non-profit corporation established in 2008,
connects Montana citizens with the Betsileo people of Madagascar in an
effort to improve the living conditions of the Betsileo. Specifically,
Betsileo Development focuses its efforts on providing clean drinking
and irrigation water, as well as educational training on the use of
the equipment.
After the completion of the project in Akazomby-Ambalavao in 2010, a
new idea emerged, not just providing a drinking water, but with also
providing electricity using various techniques such as the use of
solar panel with water pump system.
The realization of this water project and electricity should bring
much change in the daily lives of the villagers: health improvement,
ability to improve irrigation, and there will be less use of labor
power while having increased production.
Immeasurable thanks to the board members of the two organizations
(Montana - Madagascar) for the determination, talent and hard work
they have put into establishing this project. Additionally, Betsileo
Development also takes great pride in empowering the villagers to meet
their potential by including them in the construction process.
We are very grateful for 11 years of generosity from private donations
and sales.
The Betsileo Development is continuing the great work of developing
public and private relationship. To succeed we need continued
investment from supporters like You.
