Some community details (provided by our in-country partners)

Waking up early to go in search for water on daily basis is a task that is better imagined for many. However, in Bargada, as in a good number of neighbouring locations, it is reality. Sadly, this task, they confront with prospects of collecting water from open contaminated sources. Today, a new well brings relief to many. And they are so grateful.
