A question...
Have you ever had to fight for water.......drinking water?
Imagine if you will you've just walked for two hours in the searing heat to the nearest water bore hole. When you arrive you will wait for a further half an hour, in a queue, for your days supply of water.......you fill your leaky water container and start the long hot journey back to your home.....your family have been waiting all the while, two boys aged one and five, they are at home - alone - Your five year old son is looking after your baby, your baby is sick with diarrhoea. Diarrhoea is one of the worlds biggest killers........
...........Now try to imagine this - the water you have trekked for so far, for so long to fetch, will do you and your family more harm than good - this water is contaminated.
This is an example that I personally witnessed in Africa, this is the reality for many, each and every day.
What to do?
We can bring fresh water to these communities, a clean, reliable source of water, that life giving liquid we all take so much for granted. I want to raise fourteen thousand pounds, ambitious I know. Is three year's of my life worth a few thousand pounds? Absolutely!
