A Year Later: Hope for Generations to Come!

Sylvia M, 14, recalled what life was like in the Tumaini Community before her community's spring was protected last year.

"The source was not safe. I could collect water while using cups, which could dirty the water. You could see dirt from the source, and this made me wait for a long time so that water can settle for me to collect," shared Sylvia.

Collecting water is now much more manageable and consumes less time for Sylvia and the other community members in the Tumaini Community.

"The source is well protected; no waste materials can be seen or collected while collecting water. The area is well-fenced, which is more secure. Collecting water is easier compared to [the] past, with no time wasting or overcrowding of people at the water source. This has really enabled me to finish my work on time [and] furthermore doing cleaning daily, improving the hygiene standards," she continued.

Having ready access to water from the spring has made a difference for Sylvia, giving her the ability to practice better hygiene, which will improve all areas of her life.

Right now, there are others in neighboring communities that desperately need safe water access. Your support will immediately go to work to provide a clean water project - and we can't wait to introduce you to the next person you'll help.
