Today, we have good news coming all the way from Bangladesh, where water-related challenges look a little different than they do in many other stories we share with you.
The community in this video wasn’t contending with a lack of water. In fact, they had quite a lot of it. But you should see what was hiding in it. At a microscopic level, this water was absolutely teeming with life (in the worst possible way). It’ll turn your stomach — and if just watching it on video has that effect, you can imagine what it did to the people drinking it.
Thanks to a new water filtration system, made possible by supporters like you, that same water is now decontaminated and perfectly safe to drink. And with water-borne illness a thing of the past, this community — and in particular its school — is teeming with life (in the best possible way).
Visit the school with us in this new video.
