Water Experience

Growing up, I walked miles with buckets of water balanced on my head, a daily struggle that shaped my understanding of water’s vital role in life. Today, through my work with JB Dondolo, I fight to ensure impoverished women and girls no longer endure the same hardship. I advocate for clean water access, empowering women to lead in water management and decision-making. As an impact entrepreneur, I challenge systemic water inequities by implementing innovative, sustainable solutions that prioritize community needs. My lived experience drives my passion to create gender equity in water use, turning struggles into solutions for a better future.
