Four children standing together

"This is a group of boys sitting in the school window in the Dominican Rebublic.  Two years ago, a water purification system was built at the school for all of the community to use.  Before this, kids were always thirsty, often drinking water from the gutters and becoming ill.  Since then, kids have gained weight and are healthier.  The kids also get fed every day at school (they actually lose weight over the summer when they are not in school.)"
