Clean Water

No child should ever go thirsty or hungry. Children need to be more than fed—they need to be nourished. Water is vital to achieving this.

Hailing from a village in Zambia that did not have hold a clean water source, Jeneta and other women in her village would often travel to a river to fetch water – albeit dirty and possibly contaminated – to meet their needs. While it may sound simple enough, fetching water is often a difficult and dangerous task, especially for women, who are further vulnerable to threats like harassment and sexual assault.

Matthew Cheung from St. Joseph's Institution International shares his conviction to bring clean water to the vulnerable and how he started "Magnificent Clean Water" – a campaign on MyVision to raise funds for clean water by donating proceeds earned from running a lemonade stall in his school. Read on to hear how Matthew took action and advocated for clean water for all!
