A Year Later: Plans to Become a Doctor!


Andrew, 10, shared how he felt before the rehabilitation of the well in his community last year. "I was feeling very bad because the pump we were having here was not good and it used to break down regularly, and that means we had to look for water, by all means, to take care of ourselves. I was not feeling good as a child."

Andrew gets help putting a bucket of water on his head.

But since rehabilitating the well, he has plenty to celebrate. "I am very happy now that we have this water point facility rehabilitated in our community. We don't have to struggle again for water."

Andrew has big plans of being a doctor in the future. "Good and safe drinking water for me is very important. I think as a child, I can achieve this plan and goal. I want to be a doctor when I grow up."
