A Year Later: More Time to Study and Play!

Charles K., 13, shared what it was like to get water from the spring last year before we protected it. "The place was not easy to access. I would fall with my container trying to carry the water home. It would get worse during the rainy season. The passage would get slippery and water dirtier."

But now, access to the spring has been made safe. "The place looks clearer, and the access is great due to the stairs, even during the rainy season. The discharge pipe makes it easy to draw the water."

Thanks to the spring protection, Charles has clean water anytime he needs it, which allows him to attend to other important tasks and even enjoy some downtime. "I have been able to plan my time well, especially during the weekend and holidays. I get time to look after my father's cows, play with my friends, and also study since I spend less time fetching water."
