A Year Later: "This water point has impacted my life"

Last year, students at Kingsway Secondary School had to leave their school campus to collect water every day since the dug well they relied upon often went dry.

"Before, the school was without [a] safe and pure drinking water point. Even to have water to drink was difficult for us. It was difficult to use the sanitation facility [and] also to do frequent handwashing," said 16-year-old Mariatu K.

But last year, a new well was installed, and things have been different ever since.

"Thanks for providing us [a] safe and pure drinking water point. I can easily get water from the water point to drink, and I will no longer miss any lectures [because] of fetching water. This water point has impacted my life," concluded Mariatu.
