The ripple effect of clean water

For World Water Day, WE celebrates the new water kiosk in Kenya’s Oloirien community, knowing that every drop will create a ripple of change. With the closest rivers more than five kilometres from the village, the people of Oloirien—particularly women and girls—spent hours walking for water to meet their daily needs. Watch the community’s reaction to see how clean water will transform their days.
