Water and Education Care International
Why WE Care
In the village of Mahero, we saw a place of promise: hardworking families, curious students, and resilient leaders. What was missing wasn’t dreams, it was access to tools and opportunities
​
-
Students walked long distances to school without access to books, uniforms, or basic supplies
-
Families collected water from distant or seasonal sources
-
Young people, when supported, rose to become leaders, athletes, and advocates
-
The community didn’t ask for charity, just an opportunity and a path forward
Our journey began with a single scholarship. But, what started as one act of support, grew into a lasting partnership​​
