If Congolese girls did not have to spend 2-4 hours every day getting water, what could they do instead?
Would they become couch potatoes and sit around all-day text their BFF's? Probably not. Most teenagers can not afford a mobile phone.
I would hope that they could spend more time trying to attend school. I would hope that they spend more time for studying to stay in school.
I would hope that they could spend more time trying to make money. I would hope that they spend more time opening a family business.
Education and development would help these Congolese girls break the cycle of poverty.
