Description: In Uganda, a young boy struggles to carry cans full of water back to his small village, and when he sees an aid truck filled with something that would make his journey easier, he devises a way to obtain some of the truck's treasure.

When Kato heads to the village well to pump a day's supply of water into two jerry cans, he discovers the aid-worker's truck has arrived with a special gift for his village.
