Our vice president Kyle recently travelled to Tanzania for the phase 1 implementation of a water pipeline system for the Erangau/Rangau community. This is what he had to say about the trip:

"I was lucky enough to travel to Elerai-Erangau during our assessment trip for this project. Returning to the community for Phase 1 implementation was an amazing experience as I was able to see again many of the people I met during the assessment trip. Interacting with them again helped bring the project full circle and see how impactful it will be on individual community members. I felt that I was able to deliver on the commitments we made during the assessment trip, which was incredibly rewarding."

Big thanks to Nikki and Sarah!
They're currently in the Erangau community, helping bring a much-needed water system to life. The community has been incredibly welcoming — even gifting them handmade shawls as a heartfelt thank-you.

Projects like these remind us why we do what we do. Clean water changes lives, and so does connection.

Shoutout to Nikki and Sarah for their dedication and heart in getting this project done!
