Small Change For Change

“Sometimes the litany of what is wrong makes us think that there’s nothing we can do about it.”

This evening I attended a lecture entitled ‘Women, Water and Technology’ given by Dr Musimbi Kanyoro, President and CEO of The Global Fund for Women. Dr Kanyoro shared stories of her childhood in Kenya, walking three miles as a 6 year-old to get water before school. She spoke of the many hours women and girls across the world spend collecting water each day and how this time could be spent at school or work. Dr Kanyoro spoke of simple solutions: she reminded us that water changes everything.

I’m thankful for the women of the world and I know that we can look beyond the "litany of what is wrong" in order to bring clean water to some of the world's poorest people. Little by little, we will create change.

Thanks for working with us.

In 2012, year 5/6 students at Vale Park Primary School raised an amazing $658.15 for clean water in Africa. Well done and thank you!

Today the team was busy printing and folding information for our school's pack. We're working toward getting more schools to partner with us in being part of the solution. It's busy work!
