World Water Day 2016

World Water Day 2016

Meet Asha*. Asha’s village was in complete turmoil before SOS found her. They had no access to clean water. She and the other girls in the village were unable to go to school because they walked for hours each day for clean water. The village needed clean water, and food, but they also needed something else.

Often, when girls were walking to get water for their families, they were in danger of being kidnapped by traffickers whose only intention was to sell them into a life of slavery. Their friends and families would never see them again.

When we learned of the circumstances in their village, we began making real changes. With the help of people like you, SOS drilled a water well that gave clean, clear water to their village, as well as to the neighboring village who were facing similar problems. As soon as that happened, the girls were able to attend school. Some of these were among the first girls in their family ever to attend school.

This intervention has the power to change the legacy for these families.  Because girls don’t have to walk miles to the nearest clean water, the likelihood of them being trafficked has decreased dramatically.

Lack of clean water is at the heart of many problems for girls like Asha.  But it doesn’t have to be this way.  There are many communities just like Asha’s. Even though we were able to intervene in Asha’s community, there are many like her who are in dire need of that same kind of rescue.
