Faces of Water
Kelvin
10 years old • Nthaani Primary School, Kenya
Kelvin enjoys reading short books and dreams of someday becoming a doctor. Prior to Well Aware’s completion of a new well in Nthaani, Kenya, Kelvin worried about contracting diseases from the water his mother would walk to gather for their family from a river 2km away. Now, Kelvin doesn’t have to worry about getting sick, and his mother no longer has to walk for water. When asked how the new water system makes him feel, Kelvin told us:
“No water, no life. I am grateful. Clean water prevents me from disease.”
