SAVE A LIFE WITH THE GIFT OF WATER

EVERY LIFE DEPENDS ON IT.

EVERYDAY LIFE IS A STRUGGLE

Families are in the fight of their lives against starvation. With a diet consisting of mostly grains, children and their parents are at risk of malnutrition. 

We’ve purchased mineral-rich land so that parents have a sustainable way to feed their families.

NOURISHING TOOLS

One of the most difficult daily chores is grinding grain for meals. It is a back-breaking, repetitive task that assumes the better part of the day for moms and girls... stealing time that could be spent learning.

A single diesel grain grinder would benefit  over 100 families in the village.

NOURISHING RESOURCES

Goats and sheep are valued village members because they provide much-needed milk for growing families. For most families, livestock costs are way beyond their reach, so they do without—with the very real risk of malnutrition.
