This is the last photo of my water collection. You can see below all the other posts from this collection and why I wanted to share it on the first post.
Water collection for every day needs is a big part of the day in many parts of Ghana especially the north. Wells, boreholes, and taps can be quite far away from the house and kids are often the ones sent to collect water. This can really cut into their education and play time. But no matter what kids do they end up having fun while doing it. On this day these kids found two white people at the bore hole also collecting and filtering water and decided to have some fun for the camera and make some faces.

It's fun going to the the stream to fetch water those days before the introduction of boreholes at strategic points in our community.
But now we do not all that we can get water inside our houses.
The real reason we need to look back and support people staying in villages when we have the ability to provide clean boreholes water for them
