World Water Day.
22 March 2024, on World Water Day, we embarked on a mission of education and empowerment in the Bomaka community. Our team visited water areas to spread awareness about the vital importance of water in our lives. Under this year’s theme, ‘Water for Peace,’ we highlighted the value of maintaining peaceful, eco-friendly habits around water sources.
We urged community members to cherish their water areas by avoiding littering and conflicts, fostering a harmonious environment for all. Armed with impactful messages on stickers, we adorned every water spot, ensuring a constant reminder of our shared responsibility towards water conservation.
During our visit, we discovered a precious natural water source in dire need of attention. Overflowing with garbage, this pristine source poses a health risk to the community, exposing them to waterborne diseases. Our resolve is stronger than ever as we gear up for our next mission—to safeguard this invaluable resource and protect the well-being of the Bomaka community.
