In February, the water purification unit that you funded on Giving Tuesday this past number was installed. It provides clean water to 2800 girls!
Our staff in Gaza organized a special celebration and educational workshops with the students in March to mark World Water Day.
First the students at the school made a simple ceremony which included a performance focused on water.
We did face painting and fun activities after the workshop
Then I led awareness workshops for students including important topics related to water such as the causes of water problems in Palestine, percentage of water pollution in Gaza, and rationing water use. I also explained about the Maia Project and how the Maia units work.
After that we activated the students through interactive games and some fun activities in cooperation with MECA partner Never Stop Dreaming Association.
It was an amazing day we enjoyed it all while sharing a lot of information about water.
With your support, we continue to maintain 73 units providing clean drinking water for more than 90,000 children in Gaza every sinlge day. We just completed some upgrades on the water purification units at 4 kindergartens and will be doing more repairs this summer as well as building 2 new units!
