The Weight a Mother Carries

Before clean water reached her community, Sandra Nakirijja's mornings started long before sunrise.
She would wake, gather her containers, and begin the walk for water before preparing her children for school. Some days, the trip took hours. By the time she returned, much of her energy was already spent.
Now, water flows within her community.
Sandra still wakes early, but now she uses that time differently. She prepares breakfast, helps her children get ready for school, and tends to her small garden, which now helps support her family financially.
Clean water didn’t change who she is. It gave her back the time and strength to live the life she was already working so hard to build.
That’s what your support makes possible. Thank you.
