(Part 1 / 4) Meet Makilina Mwale, a resident of the Chawa community in Kasungu, Malawi, where The Sonder Project constructed a deep-water well in 2022. Makilina is 41 years old, with 3 surviving children, and spends her days tending her household and supporting her husband with subsistence farming. Today, as we meet Makilina on her morning trip to collect water, she is beaming with happiness as she catches up and jokes with the other women at the well. She seems calm, and well-rested, but as we speak to her more, we learn that her life used to be very different just a couple of years ago when she suffered from a near-death incident due to contaminated water. #WaterIsLife #SafeWater #SonderProject #WaterForDevelopment #DrillingWells #WellDrilling #BurkinaFaso #WaterAccess #AccessToWater #CommunityEngagement #CommunityDevelopment #RuralDevelopment #SustainableDevelopment #WomenAndWater #WaterIsHerRight #SonderStory #SonderStories
