When you think of healing disease, you may think only of doctors, nurses and medicine. But you can actually stop hunger, heal disease and save many thousands of precious lives with the simple gift of water. It is truly a life-saving solution. When water is unsafe to drink, the entire community suffers. In many rural communities, it is the women and children who are responsible for locating and transporting water.
Nothing can change a community like providing a source of clean water for the first time.
It creates a complete transformation. It has the power to actually stop the cycle of poverty. The entire community becomes healthier. For the first time, children become eager to learn while young men and women are able to work harder to produce an income and more food. Everyone can envision better futures and begin working towards them.
