洁净水带来的快乐

乌干达两千多个家庭第一次体验到了喝上干净清澈水的简单快乐。许多人慷慨解囊,特别是吉姆-威尔海特(Jim Wilhite)的慷慨解囊,使这项工作得以完成。

吉姆是 "有福之水 "的志愿者。虽然他住在肯塔基州北部,但他的心属于乌干达。他利用在美国的时间为滤水器筹集资金,然后将滤水器送到乌干达各地的难民营和偏远村庄。

在过去的三年里,康博尼北美传教士与肯塔基州北部的非营利组织 "有福之水"(Water With Blessings)合作,为最需要的人提供简单易用的水过滤系统。

吉姆上一次访问乌干达是在 2020 年,当时募集到的捐款足以向乌干达运送 540 台滤水器。今年夏天,吉姆终于能够回到他深爱的国家,分享洁净水的礼物。

每个过滤器都交给了一位 "水妇",她将过滤干净的水并与至少另外三个家庭分享。这意味着乌干达的 1 万多人将不必再为饮用褐色的带病水而担忧。
