For more than three decades, World Vision has worked in water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH), originally starting with small water projects. Today, World Vision is reaching one new person every 10 seconds with clean water and one new person with handwashing promotion as well. Here are five examples of our water work around the world. 1. Gravity-fed water pipeline In the northern Kenyan community of Kesot, clean water rushes from a gravity-fed water pipeline system. A hilltop dam protects and diverts spring water and the pipeline — which community members helped build and now help maintain — delivers it to homes and the three primary schools. Students, like Cheru, can attend class because they spend less time gathering water and because the schools are...
