With help from Drop Of Compassion, MAT distributed 640 water wheels to eight villages in Mangochi—Kwiputi, Masuku, Malimbasa, Saidi Kwilemba, Maindi, Matukuta, Kwilasa village T/A Jalasi, and Namakango village T/A Mponda—on February 25th and 28th, 2022. These water wheels will ease life for many families by eliminating the need to carry water in buckets.

Problems before water wheel distribution:

  1. Women walked long distances carrying buckets on their heads
  2. Water often became contaminated due to uncovered buckets

Solutions provided:

  1. Women no longer need to carry water on their heads
  2. Water remains safe and clean during transport
