A tap in her compound ends Kellen's six-kilometre walk for water

For more than fifty years Kellen walked six kilometres for water. Now a tap stand in her compound gives her water, and an income.

“Water coming to my home has changed my life. I feel respected, and I no longer suffer like before. It is never too late; I never lost hope until water came home.”
