Story
We are taking part in the Big Walk for Water with CAFOD on 31 March 2021. Each pupil will be taking part and raising money. When sponsoring please write the pupil's name in the comment box.
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 community's water pump - £66
- a water pump - £750
