You are making a big impact for communities around the world
For 13-year-old Toefuata’iga and her classmates in Samoa, a day at school used to be defined by uncertainty. Not because of exams or lessons, but because of something far more basic than this – access to clean and safe water.
With the support of compassionate people like you, our partner Caritas Samoa installed a 10,000-litre water tank, which enabled the school to maintain a regular class schedules, improving both educational outcomes and student health. Attendance and enrolment numbers surged, as parents no longer worried about sending their children to a school without access to clean water.
