Their laughter was music to her ears, and for the first time in long time, she felt a surge of hope. Her children would never know the crushing burden of water scarcity that had cast a shadow over her own childhood.

Jutti’s memories growing up in the village are intertwined with the relentless quest for water. She recalls walking three miles every day as a child to collect water, her small frame weighed down by heavy buckets. Education was a luxury she wasn’t afforded. Even when a hand pump was installed, it barely produced enough water for 10-15 buckets a day, leading to fights and frustration among the villagers.

The place where the well now stands was once their ballfield. Jutti remembers the dry and dusty ground kicking up clouds of dirt as she and her friends played rowdy games of soccer. Little did they know that beneath their feet lay a hidden treasure—a vast reservoir of water that would one day quench the thirst of the entire village.

Thanks to your generosity, the dusty ground now reveals its beautiful secret. Jutti’s children no longer have to miss school to fetch water. They can focus on their education, safe in the knowledge that clean, life-sustaining water is right at their doorstep.

At 32, Jutti has experienced the joy of seeing the first well and water tanks installed in her village. It’s a relief that words can hardly describe—the end of a half-lifetime of water scarcity. She watches her children playing in streams of water
