Story
We are taking part in the Big Walk for Water with CAFOD. Please join Team St. Mary's Lent Project, by sponsoring us and helping us reach our target of £750 to fund the building of a well for a remote community that has no water. Your support for our Big Walk for Water will mean that we can help people like Abdella, who is 23 and he has big dreams. He dreams of not having to walk for ten hours a day to get water. Abdella lives in Afar, Ethiopia one of the hottest places on earth. He spends most of a day getting water for his family to drink. On the days when he's too tired to walk, his brother goes. He knows that if there was water near his home, his family wouldn't have to worry about getting enough to stay alive. And he could start on the dreams he has for the rest of his life.
