Story

Meet Masru, whose life has been transformed

Masru Bai, along with her husband and their three daughters live in Beedipur village, the Bakaner district of Madhya Pradesh, India. Masru and her husband both work as labourers to support their family. Before the water, sanitation, and hygiene programme, the entire village relied on hand pumps for water, unaware that the water contained harmful fluoride. This lack of knowledge led to various health issues, affecting both children and elderly individuals in the community.

I have witnessed the power of collaborative efforts, education, and sustainable interventions in transforming lives. The implementation of the Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) programme, coupled with fluorosis mitigation measures, has not only elevated the quality of our water but has become a beacon of positive change in our community. Through awareness and collective action, we have embraced better hygiene practices, ensuring not just cleaner water but improved overall wellbeing. This journey represents the resilience of communities when empowered with knowledge and support.
