Did You Know?

Often it is children who are responsible for fetching water for their families.

Although young, those small and frail beings carry large buckets or cans on their heads or at arm's length.

When the drinking water point is far away, these children must travel great distances with a heavy burden to transport on their heads.

Having wells close to home allows them to:

  • Reduce the physical impact on their immature bodies by carrying such heavy loads.
  • Improve hygiene conditions for this more vulnerable population!
  • Arrive on time at school or even be able to go to school because they will not have to travel so far to fetch water before school.
  • Even have time to play like all children in the world should have.

When you provide resources and your prayers to drill a well in an area, you bless hundreds of children with good health, joy, hope and trust in the Lord for a better tomorrow.
