Make A Difference today on World Water Day!!

This sweet boy should be in school, instead he is making the long, grueling journey for unclean water. How can they break this cycle when the dirty water is making them sick.
Most of their day is spent gathering water for their families. Clean water would mean more hours to their day to focus on bringing in income for their families instead of dirty water.
Clean water will change their lives in so many great ways!! Everyone deserves CLEAN water.

I am so excited that there is a World Water Day! Water is something that I really, really took for granted until I walked for miles in the shoes of the Ethiopian people (who, ironically, had no shoes). Sometimes being back at home I find myself still taking the flip of a handle at the sink for granted!! Even if I had to walk miles for water, to find myself carrying 40lbs of nasty, filthy, muddy water that animals use the bathroom in and people bath in. How could we even find the strength to function? Survival?! They have no other choice. Water is the only thing that our body HAS to have to live! Eighty percent of their illnesses are due to water-borne diseases. Our littlest one still deals with a parasite and he has been here for two years , and we have great medical care. This is real life (and death) for these amazing people--we can make a difference!!!

$10 can make a difference!! Buy a foot of pipeline and help bring in clean water for Chuko. For more information about this project click here: www.ourglimmerofhope.org/digdeep.
