Salah Mohammed, a 12-year-old from the Hermel district of Marib Al-Wadi school, left the school and started moving water to the houses from his village's water supply tank because there was no pumping line for distributing water to the houses. Such thing makes women and children responsible for bringing water to homes daily, people are unable to afford the financial burden of installing the water line to their homes.
Salah used to spend his day bringing home water for 300 Riyals ( for 40 liters), a material return that Salah's father considers better than his son sitting on the bench and listening to his teacher.
sample
Salah is a case for a sample of children and women who have dropped out of school, and most of their daily interest is to bring water to homes, whether in return for money paid by families without children or for their families' daily needs for water.
Salah at school
The Public Works Project, through the implementation of a tower reservoir project with the installation of a water pumping and distribution line, made Salah and other women and children attend classes and change their interest in bringing water to go every morning to school.
The project of the reservoir and the pumping line provided the water of the house with ease and without suffering. From today on, there is no need to transfer water by the heads of women and children, as Haj El-Taweel and the housewives say except Fatih Al-Hanifah and you will find the clean water in her hands. For years.
Thanks!
Al-Haj Al-Taweel thanks the Public Works Project for its role in addressing people's suffering and alleviating it with projects that affect daily life especially in such harsh and difficult conditions.
