Clean water
40 years. Yes, it's been 40 years until Lumban Binanga can taste and see what "clean and hygiene" water is. I will share a brief background about Charity Water in Lumban Binanga.
It started when drought season after 4 months without rain, I was there and I see it by myself people are starving with clean water.

I felt like I need to do something, because nearby village around 500m in distance already had access to clean water from "PDAM" (Indonesia government water company). Which means the distribution pipe is near and reachable. So I applied to PDAM for distribution pipe installation to our village. It all started in September 2016 and we can finally had access to clean water in May 2017.
Why is this called Charity Water? Because it not about one people who make the change but everybody took part in this project. From the communication phase, funding phase until installation phase. Last but not least, all of this Charity Water project will not happened if it's not by God's helping hand. Praise the Lord.
I attached the proposal of this project below. Enjoy the story!
