On the last day of construction before the celebration, the team began the day with a successful leak test! This was the first time that they opened the valves and allowed water to flow through the system to check for leaks. There weren’t any on the very first try, an incredible accomplishment. This left plenty of time to continue to practice the accounting and record keeping skills needed to successfully sell the water. This school intends to charge 7 Guatemalan Quetzales, or about $1 for a 5 gallon bottle of water.

The education team finished their final lessons on dental hygiene and invited the entire team, including Padre Maxi, to begin placing their hands on a banner which will be displayed prominently at the next day’s celebration.

A very long 4 days of hard work had paid off! The Agua Viva team shared a celebratory dinner with their new friends, and new Agua Viva trainers, from Centro Betania, including a little dancing.

On the 5th day of every project, we celebrate! We were thrilled to share the afternoon with all of our gracious hosts at Educativo Betania San Benito I and Centro de Promoción Comunitaria Betania Ceprocobe!

Padre Maxi invited the students and parents at Centro Educativo Betania to bless the water room and share in the first drink of water together. Thanks to everyone’s hard work, all 6 classrooms at the school now have water dispensers so the students can enjoy a healthy drink of water whenever they want.

During the celebration, the new educators and new operators were recognized with certificates, and the Agua Viva team were presented with gifts of local fruit baskets, friendship bracelets, and coffee mugs to remember their time together. The leaders at Centro Educativo Betania planned an incredible event, including inviting everyone to add their handprints to the banner and practice good handwashing technique before sharing a delicious lunch of tamales and yucca together.
