Families: 45
Water committee: 3 men and 7 women

Before the well, life revolved around the endless search for water. Women and children would walk an hour and a half to find water, sometimes resorting to digging pit wells along the riverbank when other sources dried up. A nearby well offered a glimmer of hope, but it had been broken for years. The constant hunt for water kept children out of school and families stuck in a cycle of survival, with little time for anything else.

Now, everything has changed. With the new well, children can attend school instead of spending hours carrying water. Attendance has soared, and grades have significantly improved. Families finally have time for activities at home, and the community is coming alive with new plans. They are organizing a community garden and preparing bricks to build new homes, turning their newfound time and energy into progress and opportunity. The well has brought more than clean water—it has brought hope for a brighter future.
