A crowd waits their turn as Faith collects water from the small puddle deep within the riverbed, often waiting for the water to swell up so she can scoop it out without the dirt in Malawi.
Esther and her three daughters endure a daily struggle for water. Each day, 12-year-old Faith and 8-year-old Isabel wake at 2 a.m. to walk to a nearly dried-up riverbed. At the bottom of a six-foot deep hole, they sometimes wait hours for the water to swell up slowly and for their turn to fill their buckets — hoping to return home in time for school. Their walk for water is 7 miles, nearly double the average distance (6 kilometers or 3.7 miles) that many women and children walk for water in a developing world.
