Water is the very essence of life, a basic need that most of us take for granted. But for millions of people across the world, getting to the point of having clean drinking water is a daily battle. The rest of us who are lucky enough to have it in abundance rarely stop to realize its real value. Yet, if scarcity were our reality, we would soon understand just how important it is.
But the water crisis threatens health, education and economic opportunity. It can be tiring, time-consuming work, one that falls disproportionately on women and children in many remote communities. In Ghana, for example, a significant number of individuals living in impoverished neighborhoods walk several miles each day, carrying heavy pans or basins to obtain water for their families. It is a difficult thing to do everyday, but the more difficult task is the quality of the water they collect.
These water sources are often contaminated, exposing whole communities to serious diseases. But with no alternatives, they have no choice but to drink, cook and bathe with the contaminated water. Something as basic as washing hands with clean water as an act that prevents illness remains a luxury for many. The impacts from this crisis goes well beyond health impacts fir instance when a child’s school hours are used for fetching water, their education is sacrificed. When a mother spends her energy collecting water, she spends less time caring for her family, or earning a living.
Unreliable sources of water also have a huge impact on agriculture and small business, it slows down progress in many communities. Water is not only a necessity its foundational to a thriving society. This is why projects like The Hive Boreholes(Hive Empowers Communities) are so essential since it has contributed to providing free access to portable water. Today we have 20 boreholes as a sustainable water systems, all bringing relief in communities struggling with water scarcity.
These boreholes are more than quenching thirst; they facilitate safe water, which in turn improves health and promotes economic growth. When clean water runs freely, everything changes; lives improve, communities thrive, children can attend school early, families who engage in economic activities with the wayer systems can create future opportunities.
For far too long, access to clean water has been an impossible dream for many underprivileged communities. But it doesn’t have to be and I think our world should be where we all have access to clean water without a struggle. But it won't just happen until we take action to make that a reality. Water is life. Never a privilege it must be a right. Proud of the impact we’re doing, and thankful to Hive for all the support.
Water they say is life and you people have taken it upm yourselves to make it available for the people of Ghana, you guys are doing a great job.
Good job done🤗🤗
