Zafaran is the mother of two girls, Haleema and Roba'aand a 15-year-old boy named Ahmed. Her husband has a chronic illness and is unable to leave their house. That's why you need to Zafaran carry all the responsibility for the family herself. She works as a cleaner at the local school and receives a monthly salary of around 300 kr. But because of the war, she doesn't get paid. The only way she sometimes gets paid is when the school director collects money directly from the students' parents.
Zafarans daughters are in 9th grade and can't help out in the homeas long as they go to school. When his father fell ill, his son Ahmed dropped out of school to help his mother at home.

But she wlast also that there is no was others, such as could Fetch water for the family.
When our partner came to the village to launch the project, they first visited the local leader and asked him to identify vulnerable families.

Immediately it dawned on me Zafaranthat her son no longer needed that make the long walk to the well and that he could now go to school to learn instead of cleaning. It was a great blessing for them, and when the team came by to install the system, they were greeted with big smiles by both parents. It gave the team renewed energy for the work.
