Thompson, CT USA - Numa, manufacturer of down hole hammers and bits, has donated thousands of dollars worth of drilling equipment to APF Ministries. These drilling products, including DTH hammers, drill bits and other drilling materials, will be instrumental in providing clean water supplies to towns and villages in Western Africa.

APF Ministries has been tirelessly working to improve living conditions in Ghana located in West Africa. In addition to providing clothes, school books and medical equipment, APF has begun a drilling program to locate and tap into clean water supplies. With much of the region's current water resources plagued with disease, they plan on drilling 50 new water wells with the equipment donated by Numa.

The water yielded from these new wells is critical to the health and well-being of the entire region. The new wells will be used to provide clean water for everyday use including drinking and irrigation of crops. It will also supply area hospitals and clinics with adequate amounts of safe water for treating patients which they presently do not have.

Numa is a major manufacturer of down hole hammers and bits for the international drilling industry. The company designs and builds down hole hammers and bits for drilling vertical and horizontal holes 3-1/2 to 43 inches (89 - 1092 mm) in diameter.
