Collecting water, Oruchinga Refugee Settlement

A refugee child running to go and fill up his family's two yellow, plastic jerry cans with water from the community's bore hole. There is no running water in the settlement and the United Nations High Commission for Refugees gives refugees only a couple of jerry cans when they arrive at Oruchinga to store water. Several times each day children must refill the jerry cans so that their families can use the water for bathing, cooking, washing clothes, and cleaning.
