Mom gave you life, now it's your turn...
While Landon was in Benin in March for our Biosand Filter Project, he had a moving conversation with 2 mothers. These women told him that they had each lost a child due to water borne illnesses. They were burdened with guilt, hopelessness, and despair.
When they learned that their remaining children would receive clean water for the rest of their childhoods through the biosand filter that their families had received, they were overwhelmed with joy.
What a life-giving gift clean water is to those who daily face the ramifications of drinking dirty water.
Give water this Mother's Day in honor of your mom. Give life in honor of the woman who first gave life to you.
