Mohamed has the tools to thrive!

"The well has helped me to achieve numerous goals, but the most important one is that I have been able to make cement bricks from the water I fetch from this point. It has also provided safe and pure drinking water for me and my family," Mohamed shared.

In March, 2023 your generosity helped put a well in the Mayonkoh Community!

Before the Spring's Protection

Mohamed, a 31-year-old farmer, lived in a community where basic necessities such as water were scarce. His family struggled every day to meet their most basic needs, such as bathing and having clean water to drink. The situation was not unique to Mohamed's family, as every household in the community faced the same challenge.

Mohamed was well acquainted with the incredible distance to any water source. For any water-related need, he would make the trek. It's hard to get ahead in life when every moment is stolen by collecting water.

One alternate water source the community relied on before their well was installed.

"I normally went to the swamp far away from the village to fetch water. It was really tough to fetch water from this swamp before the implementation of this project. Every day, I go to the swamp to fetch water when I want to bathe and drink," shared Mohamed.

Since the Spring's Protection

Your generous gift was much more than a simple donation; it was a powerful statement about your commitment to this community and Mohamed's future. By supporting the installation of the well, you made clean water an everyday reality for him, fostering hope for a brighter future.

Reliable and clean water lays the groundwork for improved health, education, and economic possibilities, allowing people like Mohamed to thrive. We frequently hear from those we interview that "water is life!"

"Fetching water from this [well] is easy and time-saving. It is easy for me to fetch water as the well is close. This has impacted my life by providing safe and pure drinking water for me and my family," he continued.

Things changed for the better after the installation of the well, providing easy access to clean water. A development that brought relief to Mohamed's family and the entire community, improving their quality of life significantly.

Mohamed's Future is Looking Bright!

You made a difference for Mohamed and the rest of his community a year ago. This is just the first chapter of their story as access to clean water continues to improve their lives!
