MITIGATING WATER SCARCITY IN SIERRA LEONE
Donation protected
Hi, hello, my name is Henry Reider. I am a Sierra Leonean who is crying for help in his community. I usually walk a mile to fetch water, which sometimes causes a lot of pain not only on me, but also on my colleagues too having challenges in fetching water. And even after walking a mile to get water, the stream usually gets dirty and it is not good for drinking, which often increases health issues in with different types diseases.
Also, sometimes young children have to wake up in the night to fetch water, which makes it hard to perform in school. And during the midnight hours, some have been assaulted and traumatized. All of this happens because there is not enough water, and the lines are too long during the day. So guys we all can make a difference in providing a good structure of water supply that will mitigate water shortages. Within this project we are going to be focusing on three communities, but first my community which is the brookfield community, because we are really really having a lot challenges on water scarcity. According to one of the PIH team member , she have already done the essential arrangement and she highlighted the total amount we needed to complete the water supply project in this three communities. Finally, thank you for helping me to put words into action.
