Story

We are taking part in the Big Walk for Water with CAFOD. Please sponsor us if you can, or join for our virtual walk, the more the merrier! (Check government guidelines) Go to www.cafod.org.uk/walk for more info. Your support for our Big Walk for Water will mean that we can help people like Abdella: Abdella is 23 and he has big dreams. He dreams of starting a small business, starting a family, of having his own home. He dreams of not having to walk for ten hours a day to get water. Abdella lives in Afar, Ethiopia one of the hottest places on earth. He spends most of a day getting water for his family to drink. On the days when he's too tired to walk, his brother goes. He knows that if there was water near his home, his family wouldn't have to worry about getting enough to stay alive. And he could start on the dreams he has for the rest of his life. Your gift could buy: - water for a family - £33 - a bike for a water engineer to travel to a remote communitys water pump - £66
