La Reserve, Haiti
La Reserve, Haiti (22 photos)
La Reserve is located high on a mountain in the northwest corner of Haiti. To get there you have to drive 9 hours by truck from Port-au-Prince — through mountain passes over river beds. Walking for water can take hours. Since drilling in that area wasn't feasible, in 2008 the Haiti Water Project helped provide a cistern and rain catchment system so that people in the community can walk a shorter distance to a local church for clean water.

Martissant, Haiti
Martissant, Haiti (15 photos)
Martissant, Haiti, is a dense, depressed urban area on the outskirts of Port-au-Prince. Resources for clean water there are few, and people are forced to buy unfiltered, unclean water from street vendors. Now people can go to a church in their neighborhood to find clean, safe drinking water from the well provided through the Haiti Water Project.

Bleck, Haiti
Bleck, Haiti (17 photos)
The community of Bleck, a town in the mountains of southeastern Haiti, was changed for good when an underground spring system forced fresh water into above-ground fountains several years ago. Kids could go to school instead of walking for water. The rate of disease went down. And more people moved to the area to be near safe drinking water for their families. In the fall of 2008, the Haiti Water Project repaired some of the pipe and expanded the system to reach additional nearby towns. There are now seven fountains providing clean water for children and families living in those communities.
