Rwanda, They Need Us

One of the major countries that has problems with unclean water sources is Rwanda. Rwanda is home to 10,942,950 people. Of this mass of people, not many of them have access to clean drinking water. In fact, because of this issue the most common form of death that occurs in Rwanda is death by worms. Truthfully this is an extremely preventable thing. All it takes is initiative. I think the best way to light a passion under any person's feet is to show them the people that are in need, that way they can realize who and what they are putting their hard earned money towards. 

Charity Water has taken the initiative to become the eyes of people around the world. How you ask? Simply by making a video that is filmed in Rwanda. I think it is a great thing that they took the time to do so. 


Also, within this video they expressed how every year on the anniversary of Charity Water, they dig a well. By digging this well, for instance in Rwanda, this will cut down an hour long hike down to fifteen minutes. This is honestly exhilarating in my humble opinion.
