hi there everyone, I would love to share a successful case about WaterAid with everyone today.
Ikognane, the vice president of a group of kitchen gardeners from Mohairiry in Madagascar describes the differences that the water project has brought to her community.
"Before the well we had no kitchen garden. Before the well was installed there wasn't anything you could eat on this bit of land there just wasn't enough rain to make things grow. We still don't have the rain, but now at least we can water the plants ourselves. Fifteen people work here now.
The great thing is that, now we have a garden we are able to eat a much greater variety of vegetables than before rather than just manioc, which means we are eating a more varied diet. It is much healthier than before - we know our families will be healthier. We also sell some of our vegetables so make some money in that way too."
It always feels great when you helped someone, don't you? Just a few dollars from each of you guys can help many people in the third world countries with clean water and improve their lives! So ACT NOW!
