A Year Later: Water access restores community harmony!

Keith A., 17, recalled what life was like in Murumba Community before his community’s spring was protected last year.

"We used to take a lot of time at the water point and struggle to get clean water, especially during [the] rainy season because the water point was open and often [would] get dirty when it rained," said Keith.

But life is much simpler and less burdensome for Keith and the other community members in Murumba now.

"Now we get clean water any time we want, and there is no struggling. Accessing the water point is also easy with the help of [the] well-constructed staircase," said Keith.

Having ready access to water from the spring has made a difference for Keith, allowing him to quickly and efficiently collect water alongside other community members.

"As you can see, there is harmony in the community [and] the way people interact and help each other, which was influenced by this water point," concluded Keith.

Thank you for helping Keith access clean water and for bringing harmony back to his community.

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.
