Giving Update: Hirumbi Community, Khalembi Spring


"Before it was protected, getting water from the spring was tedious. The spring was dirty with all sorts of rubbish. We were forced to walk for long distance looking for clean water, which was tiresome."

"Today, getting water from this point is the best experience so far. We no longer walk for a long distance to get water."

"Secondly, the water from our spring is the best compared to other springs."

"As children, our health conditions have greatly improved. This is because we finally have clean and safe water nearby for drinking."

"We are also able to wash our hands at all times, after playing, and after using the latrines."

Gillian carries clean spring water home.
