Rural Burundi can be a challenging place to construct sustainable water systems. Find out the seven steps we use to capture, filter, and distribute clean water to communities in southwest Burundi.
The schools tell the real story, before clean water, girls were not seen in school because their main job was to fetch water and this left no time to attend school.
As we prepare for returning to school here in the U.S., it is worth remembering that many children in Burundi do not have access to education. But clean water helps change that: in villages with Gazelle Foundation water systems, children are much more likely to attend and stay in school.
