Refreshing Water Solution in Mexico
MEXICO – Who are these radiant children, and why are they wearing such dazzling smiles? Meet Federico (9) and Diana (4), the youngest of the Pérez kids. Their older siblings used to trek long distances every few days to get water needed for drinking, bathing, and washing clothes—but now they have it stored safely nearby. Now they are benefiting from a refreshing water solution in Mexico. It’s a win-win story not only for this family, but for an entire village!
Living just outside the town of Jiquipilas, in the Mexican state of Chiapas, this family—like the others in their small community—suffered the uncertainty of water scarcity. They needed an efficient way to gather and store water, especially during dry periods. Their father, Joaquín, led multiple trips for water each week. But, as is all too often the case, the water wasn’t clean and caused health problems like stomachaches and headaches. Much as they wanted to, Frederico and Diana’s parents were unable to change this difficult situation for their children.
Water Solution in Mexico Helps Battle Water Scarcity
But thanks to your thoughtfulness, the families of this village now enjoy a very different reality. In response to the town’s need, friends like you made it possible for Operation Blessing to intervene. We met with the villagers and found a way to improve their communal water system by installing a water tank with chlorination—and ensuring that all of the homes would have full access to this vital resource. This water solution in Mexico would prove to be life changing, as the entire village did not suffer from the stress of water scarcity.
The health of the villagers also improved after participating in the water care workshops we provided. Joaquín said gratefully, “Our way of life has already changed, and we believe it will change even more because we are taking care of the water. …We feel thankful because we hadn’t received help from anyone, and Operation Blessing’s supporters provided that help.”
