“Our family needs 100 liters of water each day. Before the sand dam and the well were built we were fetching our water from the far away Tawa river. There were big snakes around and it could take up to two hours. Additionally the water was not secure enough to drink it. Now, with our well at the dam, I have access to clean water and don’t have to walk that far anymore to fill my containers. The cattle has enough water too and I can water my fields.”
