Mussa is inspiring.
Check out Mussa’s story from Tanzania. Thinking about featuring this in a Kid’s VBS impact and serve moment for next year. Hence the fun character drawing.
“I want to be on Water Mission’s team to help the other communities have safe water. I want to be the Water Mission person who trains people.” Mussa, 12-year-old boy in Igamba, Tanzania
The Backstory
For children in Igamba, Tanzania, lack of safe water meant there was little time for play. Many like Mussa, age 12, spent their days waiting in long lines to gather water from a singular handpump which drew untreated water directly from a lake. This water was contaminated, and many in the community, including Mussa, suffered from water-related illnesses. “My friends and I had stomach issues because of the water,” said Mussa. “When I am sick, I can’t fetch water or play soccer.”
When Mussa learned Water Mission was starting a safe water project in Igamba, he got excited and hopeful for the future. “I will be happy and the whole community will be happy because Igamba’s major problem will be solved,” Mussa shared.
Water Mission’s safe water project in Igamba, makes clean, safe water accessible to nearly 4,000 people. Water from a drilled well is treated, pumped to a storage tank using solar power, and made available at tap stands throughout the community. Access to safe water has improved children’s health and given them hope for the future.
When Mussa dreams of his future, he says, “I want to be on Water Mission’s team to help the other communities have safe water. I want to be the Water Mission person who trains people.”
