Celebrate with us the impact we have had in building awareness and action in Central Texas for sustainable, clean water systems in rural Burundi. Thank you for being involved and spreading joy, unity, and peace a world away to 125,000 Burundians and counting!
The schools tell the real story, before clean water, girls were not seen in school because their main job was to fetch water and this left no time to attend school.
As we prepare for returning to school here in the U.S., it is worth remembering that many children in Burundi do not have access to education. But clean water helps change that: in villages with Gazelle Foundation water systems, children are much more likely to attend and stay in school.
