Facing intermittent electricity, one community in the Dominican countryside has set up a system to ensure that each house has access to water all day. This system relies on a water pump, but what happens when the pump fails?
Thankfully, through direct donations and people deciding to add a little extra to their fundraising goals, our Emergency Relief and Community Development Fund was in great shape to help the community buy a new pump.
Watch the video below.
