Kasana, who lives in the Kimilolo Area Development of DR Congo used to walk six kilometers to fetch clean water from a pump well every day. After World Vision dug a well in the village, his walk was reduced to just two kilometers.
Drinking dirty water from contaminated wells is a serious threat to the health of children in Africa. Diarrhea is the leading factor contributing to the high death rate of children. The price of building a pump well for 500 people is NT$ 500,000.

Can we expect a sanitary latrine?
“If we had a sanitary latrine in the community, it would be awesome! When I need to go to the bathroom I must walk into the brushwood. It impacts the environment in our community, and even pollutes the source of drinking water”, said Mina, an 8-year-old child.
