Imagine living in a community of 11,000 people (3,000 of them children) crammed into an area of 4 square kilometers. Imagine five people dying every day from preventable causes. Imagine being 30 years old and not once in your life having had a drink of clean, safe water. Imagine knowing that the water you give your children is sickening and killing them, but there is no alternative. Imagine 80% unemployment. Imagine no medical care. Imagine your home collapsing around you during the rainy season. Imagine children playing in open sewers.

For the people of Kantolomba, Zambia, this is reality.

Now imagine children attending school every day and being given healthy food and clean water. Imagine clean water for the entire community. Imagine a medical clinic. Imagine roofs on the houses so they don't fall down. Imagine job training and support for micro-businesses.

This is becoming reality. You can help.
