“The Mayan greeting “In lak’ ech, Hala ken” or “I am another you, as you are another me” conveys the essence of our interconnection and responsibility toward each other. I do this work because access to safe water fulfills essential needs and unleashes possibilities for improved livelihoods and personal growth. In the words of Mother Teresa, “Love has to be put into action, and that action is service."”
