If you've ever said to yourself, "Why don't (fill in the blank with random needy people group) just do (whatever it is they need to help themselves)?" Eva Tolage's story might be for you.
Eva is now 15 years old. She wants to go to school and become a police officer. But she doesn't have time because she's too busy walking to the nearest river to haul water.
Her father works all day to pay for her schooling, but someone has to get water because there is no clean source of water in her village. (If you know of a way to help Flint, Michigan, by the way, please leave a comment about it.)
Eva and her village wrote letters to the Tanzanian government asking for clean water and electricity. They haven't heard back.
So the One Campaign is asking folks to join them, putting pressure on the Tanzanian government to make good on its commitment to the Global Goals.
You can help Eva help herself. She doesn't want charity, she wants a chance. Will you #StandWithEva?
