Hi! My name is Avni Singh, and I'm in Grade 9 of The Shri Ram School Moulsari.

I'm here, campaigning because I feel that the women in many rural areas of India face a big problem. They have to carry water on their backs, or their heads, day in, day out. This especially occurs in areas like Rajasthan, where water is a scarce resource and women have to walk kilometres to obtain what is a daily necessity for all humans. Of course, the desert doesn't seem very solvable right now, but the problem that the women face can still be easily tackled.

I present to you, the Water Wheel. This is a genius invention (quite ergonomic, too). You must be wondering, though, what is it? The Water Wheel is a carrier for water, which, as the name suggests, can be wheeled along almost anywhere. It stores about 45 litres of water and can be pushed ahead easily, across most terrain, across long distances. Not only this, it's not that badly priced either, for something that lasts a whole lifetime.

Naturally, this saves women time. What can this time be used for, you ask? Well, anything! Women can begin to earn incomes for their families, instead of spending their whole lives providing everyone with water.

I ask you to please support this campaign. The Water Wheel does improve lives and donating a bit of money to getting a new one for a new family... it doesn't seem like too bad an idea!
