Fresh Water
I was inspired to make the piece “Fresh Water” after I had the privilege to visit the Navajo Nation in New Mexico and was astounded to learn that 1 in 3 Navajo still don’t have a sink or a toilet. I was introduced to Dig Deep, a nonprofit organization who brings clean, hot and cold running water to families across New Mexico, Utah and Arizona. I followed them around for a day watching and learning as they installed their unique water cistern system in homes.
Navajo are 67 times more likely than other Americans to live without running water or a toilet. That's an injustice.The Navajo Water Project is a community-managed utility alternative that brings hot and cold running water to homes without access to water or sewer lines.They do this primarily by installing an off-grid Home Water System that they have designed. but our impact doesn’t stop there.
The Navajo Water Project is Indigenous-led, and registered as an official enterprise on the Navajo Nation. Their work creates meaningful, high-paying jobs, many with benefits like 100% employer-paid health coverage.
