Hey there! I'm Jyothika Jibu. I am 13 years old and I study at EuroSchool North.

This is a campaign that will modify the lives of women in rural areas who are troubled with the inconvenient task of walking long distances to get water. The task is tedious and very time-consuming. It causes numerous types of ailments like back and neck-aches. The women also spend long hours to get the water & end up wasting a lot of time. This time that could be used to do something more productive and generate income elsewhere.


I was thrilled and surprised to learn about the Water Wheel. This is a simple and revolutionary innovation which is very easy-to-use, can hold up to 45L of water and provides the household with enough water for a day or more. The handles on the water-wheel can be removed in seconds and it then doubles as a storage container. It's very durable and will last for years. It also brings about a massive behavioural change as many men and boys start using it to get water.

I request you to support my campaign and let us together bring joy to more women. The Water wheels will be distributed by the team from the Rotary Club of Hanging Gardens with their local partners. The cost of doing this (including identifying the women, the cost of the water wheel, the actual distribution ) is only INR 2500 per water wheel making it truly a revolutionary idea.

Lets together impact and change the lives of these women in rural areas in India.
