Dedication:
In loving memory of Joel Seiler – Joel Seiler was a young man in Southern California who fought a long hard battle with Lukemia. When asked what he wanted to do with the money in his savings account, he said he wanted it to help kids in Africa get clean water. In Joel’s passing, his friends and family added to his legacy and fully funded a well in his memory.

A young villager named Stephen, who (at the time of this photo) was the same age as Joel. We shared Joel's story with him, and asked him to share the story of Joel's selflessness with others.

Villagers dancing circles around the new well.
We got the chance to print portraits of kids at the well and give them to them. For most, this is the only photo of themselves that they have.
