Water is our most basic need to live, and is one of our most expensive projects! Villagers travel 3 to 5 times a day, up to 1.5 hours each trip, to fetch clean water for cooking, drinking, washing and bathing. This water is more often than not, from a dirty stream, or from an unprotected hand dug hole. Our communities are scattered among a low-lying mountain ranges, making it very difficult to dig through the rock, and requires expensive machinery to do the job. Your contribution helps us bore through this rock to access clean life giving water for our village friends.
