Water builds! #WorldWaterWeek #WWWeek
“I had to fetch water for my family, which made it difficult to attend school regularly, I would attend classes twice a week, which affected my academic performance” Tausi Katambarai. We're kicking off #WorldWaterWeek💧 with Tausi, an 11-year-old from Kaguruka village in Kigoma, Tanzania. Tausi would trek 10 kilometres daily to fetch water, often missing school and putting herself and her family at risk of waterborne diseases. But through the support of the Grundfos Foundation | PDJF, UNICEF, in partnership with Water Mission, safe drinking water is now available in 31 villages in Kigoma, benefiting nearly 20,000 residents, including Tausi and her family. Read more about Tausi’s journey and the transformative project: https://lnkd.in/dCKsZb3U

🎧🔬 You can now listen to a 5-minute summary of the findings of the #REALwater article on the most cost-effective approach for microbial water testing. This article compared the costs per E. coli test (membrane filtration) that has been carried out on four approaches representing different levels of centralization. The analysis is based on three real-world contexts in #Ghana, #Uganda, and in hypothetical simulations capturing various conditions across #ruralAfrica.

“Water Mission’s presence isn’t just about safe water, but also bringing hope to the recovery: the hope that we find in Jesus.” After Hurricane Beryl devastated the Caribbean in early July, our Disaster Assistance Response Team (DART) jumped into action. A month into the response, our team continues to work alongside local partners to provide people with safe water. Head to our site to learn more about this response and view a video update from a DART member. ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/eCiRJM9G

“I have seven grandchildren, and when I think that my grandchildren will have safe water, I am very happy…" Grandma Vines lived most of her life in Golomoti, Malawi when safe water was nonexistent. She would rise early in the morning to make a 90-minute round trip walk for water. Unsafe water caused her a lot of health issues. But after Water Mission installed a safe water project in Golomoti, she is excited that her grandchildren will not face these challenges. "They can get water in time for school—and actually, they will [be able to] get water, anytime, morning, or afternoon, or night.”
