Akon’s Story

You know that the simple act of providing clean water profoundly impacts the lives of individuals in South Sudan. But for people like Akon Madut Wol, clean water goes far beyond quenching thirst. It means peace and stability for herself and her entire community.

Akon's daily life was filled with long, exhausting walks to fetch water for her family. She often had to wait in long lines at distant water points and relied on unsafe, open wells for her water. This made her worry for her family’s health and well-being.

But now, Akon's village has a reliable water source right at her doorstep, meaning she doesn’t have to walk for hours daily. She can use it freely for drinking, cooking, and her family’s daily needs. Akon's life has truly transformed, and she’s grateful for the difference clean water has made in her community.
