A Year Later: More Time to Learn!

Abby Z., 13, recalled what life was like at Bulupi Primary School before her school’s two rain tanks were installed last year.

"We used to come with water from home or [be] forced to go collect from a community spring which was hard and time-wasting," said Abby.

But life is much more enjoyable for Abby and the other students at Bulupi Primary School now.

"We now have sufficient water for drinking and cleaning our classes. It is good also because the lower classes can have water without disturbing others," said Abby.

Having ready access to water from the rain tanks has made a difference for Abby and her fellow students, allowing them time to focus on learning once again.

"Our teachers are trying their best to help us recover [the] time [that] used to be wasted while looking for clean water by having extra lessons, which [I] am sure will improve our scores," concluded Abby.

Thank you for helping Abby access clean water and regain time to learn and hopefully create a brighter future.

Right now, there are others just like her 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.

Abby.
