Romas, a 51 year old farmer in Cambodia, worried every day about having enough money for his family as they spent so much of their money on medical care. Along with that, his wife and children routinely drank dirty rainwater and dirty well water because it was all that they had. Now and then they would get sick from the water with stomach aches and diarrhea, and at those times, they would worry. But there was no clean water at home. And there was no way to solve this problem because they could not afford clean water.
But because of your generous giving through CWEF, Romas' family received a biosand water filter in July 2023!! After they received the biosand water filter, they used their newly-obtained clean water for cooking, drinking, and showering. Soon, all of Romas' family members recovered their health! They now also have more energy and time to earn money on their farm because they no longer need to boil water. Romas feels hopeful that his family's good situation will continue into the future. He says, "Thank you to everyone that donated to support my living standard through the clean water project."
