The website says that they incorporate "well maintenance" as part of the "installation process." This reminds me of chapter 18 because some of the men in Nya's village were going to be trained to keep the well working so that all could receive clean, fresh, and healthy water.

The website says that "where safe, clean water flows, villages have more opportunities to prosper." this reminds me of chapter 18 because after the well is built there will be a school being built and a marketplace, and maybe a clinic in the future.

the website is cool and it has a lot of Sudanese people. I know that clean water changes lives. I know this because Salva had given the nuer people a well and it changed their lives by letting them grow fruits and vegetables and let them buy them too

This reminds me of chapter 18 because he gives water to many people just like he did in Nia's village in chapter 18.

water helps people live and some people have been drinking dirty water and dirty water can make u sick and that's why salva

Water helps a lot of people to get energy and they can work and go to school instead of walking for miles and miles to get muddy dirty water now Salva has helped at least 5 million people and more and he saved a lot of people's lives to get water at the Nuer tribe.

Clean water changes lives, helping to strengthen families and communities. Where safe, clean water flows, villages have more opportunities to prosper. this reminds me of when the uncle said that they can have new things like a school

The quote I used was clean water changes lives, helping to strengthen families and communities. Where safe, clean water flows, villages have more opportunities to prosper This reminds me of chapter 18 when it also told us that water can help us in many ways and can strengthen communities. This is the

A quote in this website says "Where safe, clean water flows, villages have more opportunities to prosper." This reminds me of how Nya's village is growing and prospering thanks to Salva's organization that built the well. This will help develop the village and build useful things like a school for the kids, a clinic and a marketplace for the villagers.

What I saw on the site that is like on chapter 18 is that the website talks about the wells and how they build them and the book talks about how the well was built and placed down. The website also talks about their goal and how they want people in South Sudan to have clean water. I think Salva did a great job doing this website.

The website says, "Clean water changes lives, helping to strengthen families and communities. Where safe, clean water flows, villages have more opportunities to prosper." This reminds me of chapter 18 because it explains how having water in your village makes a big difference just like Nya after the a water well got built in her village she is getting a lot more reliable resources.

Charlie Morris

2024-09-17 15:08:56 UTC

When it says "Where safe, clean water flows, villages have more opportunities to prosper." It reminds me of Chapter 18 because it says they might be more successful in their village even though they only have the well because they might add clinics.

The website says that ¨Clean water changes lives, helping to strengthen families and communities.¨ This reminds me of chapter 18 when the people stood in a line talking and laughing while waiting for water. As well as the water is for everyone all over, so they are coming together and benefiting from this amazing gift. As a community, they have to maintain the well.

The website says its rehabilitation team in 2017 to repair older wells, The rehab team returns to older wells to replace broken parts and upgrade the cement platforms around the wells, The cement platform and animal watering trough are repaired using a more robust design standard to ensure many more years of use. Broken wells in Africa are a big problem, field teams also respond to community requests to repair wells drilled by other organizations, WFSS has drilled more than 600 wells since 2005, and More than 500,000 people now have access to safe water, Our drilling teams work during the dry season: December to May, Every new water well takes three to seven days to complete, One well pumps approximately 1,800 gallons (6,814 liters) per day, One to two people in each village are trained in basic good maintenance to ensure common repairs can be made, Communities are connected to local supply chains for spare parts, Each well serves between 500-1,000 people and is shared with everyone. It reminds me of chapter 18 bc of Salva and his team building wells for the Nuer even if they're enemies and that shows kindness and respect.

Clean water is one of the most important things in our lives. Salva has done so much for the world by building wells that give fresh, clean water and building restrooms for people who have to walk for miles at a time for contaminated water and for people who have holes in the ground to use as toilets. Salva's story is very long, inspiring and it shows his persistence, his hardships, his experiences, and his life in general. In Chapter 18, it says that he even built a freshwater well for the enemy tribe for hundreds of years. In the video, one of his most used quotes is "Just keep walking" and I think that quote alone will help the lives of thousands of people who see his story, let alone people who see his entire experience with the hardships of life. The well he built for the Nuer has and will continue to help so many people. In Chapter 18, it says the well has helped the people build a school for the children and that is a big thing. Not only will the children who continue there will learn life skills easier, but they will also have more fun

The website says "Children, often girls, spend their days walking for water. They walk an average of 3.7 miles per trip. Sometimes they make multiple trips to obtain water, carrying up to 40 pounds (18 kgs) of water each time." This reminds me of Nya because she had to walk to get water twice a day.

Salva made about 662 wells in sudan. He not only built wells for his tribe (Dinka) He also built some for the nuer tribe. They said that "clean water saves lives" and i totally think that that was a very good thing to say. I also think that every sip of water will save your life. Clean water is one of the most important things. Salva was very brave and smart by raising money for sudan and the wells. Instead of drinking dirty water because of salva they can drink clean water. Clean water changes your life and i hope he gets to build more wells.

The website states: "Where safe, clean water flows, villages have more opportunities to prosper" This reminds me of chapter 18 because the well brought the village a school, a marketplace, and possibly a clinic.

Savla made 22 toilet facilities, which is amazing because back then there were no bathrooms.

Porter Gardner

Salva is making wells for them and it impacts them to get clean water and build other stuff for the village.

2024-09-17 16:44:26 UTC

Salva told some people of the villiages and gave them jobs to keep water safe

The website says,"Clean water changes lives, helping to strengthen families and communities." This piece of text reminds me of chapter 18 because when they made the well, so many buildings were made like a school, marketplace, and maybe a clinic. This clean well also helped rival tribes to come together because the Dinka tribe now helps gather water for the Nuer tribe.

Salva makes the wells for the people in South Sudan for the people in need and for people not to get sick or even die from this dirty water because of how his father got sick over the dirty water so he didn't make other sick too.

The website says that "10 PERCENT

of people in South Sudan have access to basic sanitation services"This reminds me of chapter 6 when Akeer gets sick from drinking the dirty water from the lake, And they have to go to the clinic to get Akeer medicine so she can feel better.

Camden

The website says ¨ The South Sudanese economy is powered mainly by livestock, such as goats and cattle, that also need access to clean water, and we know that protecting the well from any animal contamination is essential to maximizing our impact.¨The conclusion is that salva wants to make the biggest impact because of his dad and how he got sick.Also how salva had to go threw war walking the country and getting shot at he wants to make a difference on all tribes so they do not have to suffer . The well will change nya's and everyone else's in her tribe and his tribe forever .

This Website Says His father’s illness inspired Salva to help both his father and his country by bringing clean water to those in need. This was the beginning of Water for South Sudan. This reminds me of chapter 18 Because Salva Gave Water to lots of people out there who needed it

The website states "Children, often girls, spend their days walking for water. They walk an average of 3.7 miles per trip. Sometimes they make multiple trips to obtain water, carrying up to 40 pounds (18 kgs) of water each time." This reminds me of villages like Salvas and Nyas in Sudan, where it’s a common cultural expectation for girls to walk long distances to fetch water from ponds often far from home.

The water they collect isn't clean or cool and may even evaporate during the dry season, forcing these children to spend a large portion of their day walking. As a result, they have little or no time to attend school since it can be miles away, which means they miss out on learning basic skills like reading and writing.

However, thanks to this project, children now have the opportunity to focus on education. Future generations won’t need to spend their days walking to collect water. Instead, they can go to school and learn—something their parents, grandparents, and even great-grandparents didn’t have the chance to experience.

Salva loves helping people, even if the people are from the Nuer tribe because he wants to help everyone not just Dinkas.

Salva has built so many wells for his tribe and others too. salva helps different tribes have nice clean water so nobody gets sick and so they don't have to walk all the way to the pond and back. the clean water changes peoples life!

The website says,"...to ensure that communities will have the supplies, connections, and funds to maintain their wells without further support from WFSS, freeing our teams to drill more wells and bring clean water to even more communities." This is a connection to Chapter 18 because in Chapter 18 Salva helped the Nuer tribe, by building wells to give them clear water that isn't muddy and building a school where boys and girls can go to school. I know this because in the text it says,"A school?... So all the children will be able to go to school...The water was delicious. It wasn't warm or muddy..."

Allison Jasso V.-

2024-09-17 17:43:12 UTC

The website says ¨often girls, spend their days walking for water¨ it reminded me of how Nya had to walk to the pond every day for a long time, now she does not have to do that thanks to Salva, because he built wells in Sudan to help.

Salva finally reaches Rochester, New York, where he begins his new life in America. He meets his foster family, who welcome him with warmth and kindness, though Salva struggles to adjust to the cold weather and unfamiliar surroundings. Despite the challenges, he continues his education and eventually finds a way to help people back in Sudan by starting a project to build wells. This chapter highlights Salva's determination and growth, as he moves from surviving war to making a positive impact on his homeland.

The website says ¨where safe, clean water flows, villages have more opportunities.¨ How this quote reminds me of chapter 18 because the well now school, marketplace, and medical clinic will now be in Nyas village

caroline

on the website it says ¨Clean water changes lives, helping to strengthen families and communities. Where safe, clean water flows, villages have more opportunities to prosper.¨ which like in chapter 18, Nyas village are not having to walk for water because of the clean well water, and now a school, clinic and market place are being built because of it.

David Benzaquen

2024-09-17 17:45:46 UTC

The website says,¨Where safe, clean water flows, villages have more opportunities to prosper.¨ I can make a connection to chapter 18 because when the water well gets added to Nyas village, schools are being built, a market is opening, and a clinic might be made too. Nyas village prospered because of the clean water in her village.

Amanda

2024-09-17 17:46:55 UTC

The website shows that Salva is helping to get clean water in Sudan. This shows me how much Salva really cares. It also reminds me of when he built the well for the nuer tribe.

Jackie

this website says that ''These communities have minimal access to clean water and often can only access contaminated water''.

nya's family had to boil water for akeer because she got sick from the dirty water.

Eden

2024-09-17 17:46:59 UTC

On the website it says "We help drill, maintain, and restore water wells so the people in South Sudan have access to clean water all year-round.", which reminded me of in chapter 18, Nya talks about how the water is clear and healthy.

"villages have more opportunities to prosper." is the quote I chose because it reminds me of when the book says "In a few more days, the school would be finished." and "Next year there would be a market place" also said in the book is "there was even talk of a clinic one day" these are all signs that the village is prospering as in the village is growing

Angelique

2024-09-17 18:06:23 UTC

The websites says "Clean water changes lives, helping to strengthen families and communities. Where safe, clean water flows, villages have more opportunities to prosper." It reminds me of how in chapter eighteen, they set up a well in the village so everyone could get fresh and clean water without that muddy and nasty taste.

These communities have minimal access to clean water and often can only access contaminated water, which will lead to individual and community health risks.

Raegan Barnhill

2024-09-18 12:35:29 UTC

Salva had changed so many lives, He made these wells for people who don't have much water at home. So many people have to walk to get their water. The website states that ¨Children, often girls, spend their days walking for water. They walk an average of 3.7 miles per trip. Sometimes they make multiple trips to obtain water, carrying up to 40 pounds (18 kgs) of water each time.¨ This shows that he has helped so many people by doing what he does!

Jordyn

2024-09-18 22:49:20 UTC

This website says that "clean water changes lives, helping to strengthen families and communities." This reminds me of when Nya's little sister Akeer got sick from the water. Then later on it leads up to Salva and his crew helping to build wells that have clean water for people that need it.

this website is really cool. i think salva was very nice and kind for providing for his tribes enemys and putting everything aside
