Giving Update: Malava Community, Ndevera Spring


"I used to be scared of going to the spring before it was protected because it was open and difficult for us to get water. Sometimes, children could fall in the water while trying to get water. The water was visibly dirty with algae all over."

"Nowadays, I go to the spring alone without any fears of drowning since, before protection, the water source was open and risky."

"I was very happy when the spring was protected because the water is safe and clean for drinking. I hardly get sick."

"Water from the spring is safe and clean water to drink which has improved our health."

"Less time is spent at the spring to get water; as a result, we get time to study, play, and still help our parents to do house chores."
