Sand Dams (part II)
I stumbled upon some amazing photos tonight! Within 3-months of visiting my friend Josh and the village communities in Dodoma, Tanzania, they've already constructed multiple sand dams to provide a more stable water supply for the upcoming year!
The dams are constructed and owned by the nearby villages with the help of MCC. Village water committees take ownership and contribute resources needed for construction. The design of the dams which hold back wet sludgy sand into the dry season originated in Kenya.
Check out more photos of the construction (and Josh's new puppy).

Wow. Someone is amazing with a camera. I'm jealous of your travels (and of Josh's puppies!)
