After years of walking to find dirty water, villages like Laindatang, Hambarita or Mbinudita can now access clean water from community reservoirs they built themselves. Clean water reduces diarrhea, skin infections, and fear. This is a true reflection of dignity in daily life.

The Nutrition and Food Program helps rural families access better food, grow home gardens, and improve their health. Linked to clean water, it tackles malnutrition and supports children’s development. In ultra-rural areas, food is not a given; it’s a survival challenge we face together.
