If you haven't checked out our Summer Catalog, we would love to invite you to see all the amazing things your gifts are supporting! One example is supporting our fuel centers. Poor fuel quality means fuel filters must be replaced every few months. Clean filters allow the trucks to run smoothly. This allows our engineers who live in the regions we serve to access these water points. To see more ways to help, check out our summer catalog! https://lnkd.in/gVmaYbYi

Recently participated in a WASH facilitators training one program. This fantastic experience equipped facilitators with tools and knowledge to promote safe hygiene practices within their communities. The facilitators' enthusiasm and commitment were truly inspiring.
