This is the way 1.1 billion people get their water every day.

These children will have to walk three miles carrying this water home.

They have no choice as this is the only water available to them.

Often their water is much closer, maybe only a few hundred feet away.

But they have no way of accessing it without a well drilling rig.

It takes an average of two weeks for us to complete a well.

If maintained properly wells can last indefinitely.

Saving thousands of lives and affecting several generation's health.

Water related illness is the number one killer of children in sub-Saharan Africa.

Once the well is drilled a brick and cement cover is built at the top of it.

This directs spilled water away from the well which helps prevent Malaria.

And other diseases caused by pools of stagnant water that attract mosquitos.

The cement is meticulously shaped by hand.

After it has been left to set, the pump and pipes are fitted.

All it takes to change thousands of lives is a well.

Please help us, together we can change lives like these.
