A Year Later: "The water point has impacted my life positively."

Morgan W., 17, recalled what life was like in Masukutse Community before his community’s spring was protected last year.

"The water point was open to contamination. Sometimes we could find a cat or a dog swimming inside the water point, which was so discouraging but we had to [use it] since there was no other water point," said Morgan.

But life is much more encouraging for Morgan and the other community members in Masukutse Community now.

"The water point has impacted my life positively. This is because I am now using [a] few seconds to fetch water, unlike before. Lastly, the water is safe and clean for human consumption," Morgan said.

Having ready access to water from the protected spring has made a difference for Morgan, allowing him quickly collect all of the safe water he needs to meet his daily needs so he has time for other things.

"The water point has helped me achieve in my studies since I am no longer wasting a lot of time at the water point. The time [I] recovered has made me to see my dreams coming to reality. Thank you for the awesome work done in this community," concluded Morgan.

Thank you for helping Morgan access clean water and make his future brighter.

Right now, there are others just like him 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.
