Water

We take water for granted. When the water main broke in Massachusetts it was a big deal. We could not drink the water from the tap, it was a big inconveince.

The children at the Christian Academy have to walk twenty minutes to a boar hole to fetch water. They usually have to wait in line for twenty minutes. The adults in line push a head of them. They then carry the water on their heads home before they walk to school. The boar hole is only open for a short time every day so the water does not run dry. The children often fetch water from swamps because they were not able to fetch it from the boar hole.

I am very grateful that Masitula has a sponsor now! If anyone is interested in sponsoring a child let me know. The school has 210 desperately needy children and only 10 of them have sponsors. s-gannon@hotmail.com.
Or if you would like to make a donation to purchase mosquito nets the cost is $10.00.
Any donation is greatly appreciated!
