Mabel Experienced Devastating Effects From Carrying Water for Miles

Mabel lives in a very dry region of West Africa. She used to walk for miles each day to fetch water for her family. Or she could draw what little dirty water was available from the village stream.

“Last year by this time, it was a war for water as the whole community crowded around the small running stream to fetch whatever little water came down,” she told our local Unto^® staff member.

If Mabel tried to make the long walk to another water source, her body felt the effects. Recently she suffered an early pregnancy loss after carrying her heavy bucket of water home for three miles.

Faithful partners like you helped drill a new well in Mabel’s village. The first time she came to draw water, she met one of our local staff members. He shared the hope of Jesus, and Mabel responded in faith! She is so grateful for the new well and prays that more good things will come to her community.

When you give today your gift will be DOUBLED by matching funds. You will provide twice as many families with safe, clean water and share the eternal hope of Jesus!
