    Dear Friend:

    In 1984, I was fortunate enough to travel to Kenya, Africa with 23 other students from my college. We had the opportunity to get to know the country by living there for four months. I lived with the family who often had to travel up to 3 miles to carry water back to their home. I experienced firsthand how challenging it is to carry a large bucket of water on your head while struggling up a small hiking trails to get back to my host's home. Later I provided the funds to clean and cover their rainwater cistern that when I first looked in was filled with green algae, dirt and debris. This did help them have access to clean water when it rained. But this could not always be relied upon.

    More recently my older daughter and I traveled to Nicaragua and watched what the community there did to acquire water. This is such a fundamental need that this organization is doing so much to meet. I hope you will join me in making a one time or monthly contribution. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Devyn
