00:00:01.36\00:00:02.33
FRIENDS FROM ADRA ARE
HERE WITH A REPORT ON THE
00:00:02.33\00:00:04.66
BRAZILIAN WATER
PROJECT "IT IS WRITTEN" BEGINS
00:00:04.66\00:00:08.46
RIGHT NOW.
00:00:08.46\00:00:09.96
(MUSIC)
00:00:11.03\00:00:20.33
>>ANNOUNCER: IT HAS
STOOD THE TEST OF TIME . . .
00:00:21.46\00:00:24.30
GOD'S BOOK, THE BIBLE.
00:00:24.60\00:00:27.76
STILL RELEVANT IN
TODAY'S COMPLEX WORLD
00:00:28.10\00:00:32.20
IT IS WRITTEN
00:00:32.60\00:00:34.70
SHARING MESSAGES OF
HOPE AROUND THE WORLD.
00:00:34.96\00:00:38.90
(MUSIC)
00:00:39.36\00:00:49.10
>>BILL: WELL, RON AND
JAMES ARE BACK WITH US TO
00:00:49.46\00:00:50.46
GIVE US A REPORT ON
THE BRAZILIAN WATER PROJECT
00:00:50.46\00:00:53.73
THAT YOU GUYS INTRODUCED
LAST YEAR. WELCOME BACK.
00:00:53.73\00:00:58.26
>>JAMES: THANK YOU. >>RON:
THANK YOU: >>BILL: SO, HOW
00:00:58.26\00:00:59.40
WAS IT? HOW DID THINGS
GO THERE IN BRAZIL? >>RON:
00:00:59.40\00:01:01.23
LOTS OF WATER STORY.
00:01:01.23\00:01:01.66
>>BILL: NOW, WHAT WAS
THE PROJECT EXACTLY THERE?
00:01:01.66\00:01:05.56
>>JAMES: IT'S A VERY
EXCITING PROJECT. I DON'T
00:01:05.56\00:01:09.06
KNOW ABOUT MOST OF THE
VIEWERS BUT WHEN I THOUGHT
00:01:09.06\00:01:10.10
OF BRAZIL BEFORE I
WOULD THINK OF WET JUNGLES.
00:01:10.10\00:01:14.63
BUT THERE ARE GREAT
AREAS OF BRAZIL THAT ARE DRY,
00:01:14.63\00:01:18.80
SEMI-ARID REGIONS AND
PEOPLE LIVING THERE REALLY
00:01:18.80\00:01:19.83
STRUGGLE TO HAVE WATER
ALL THE YEAR ROUND, FOR
00:01:19.83\00:01:24.16
THEMSELVES, FOR
THEIR WASHING, FOR THEIR
00:01:24.16\00:01:27.40
ANIMALS, FOR THEIR
GARDENS, FOR WHATEVER. AND
00:01:27.40\00:01:28.36
THIS EXCELLENT
PROJECT WAS WORKING WITH THE
00:01:28.36\00:01:32.46
LOCAL PEOPLE AND CANADIAN
VOLUNTEERS TO PROVIDE RAIN
00:01:32.46\00:01:36.93
CATCHMENT OR STORAGE
TANKS, SISTERNS TO MAKE
00:01:36.93\00:01:37.90
SURE THEY HAVE CLEAN,
POTABLE WATER ALL THE YEAR
00:01:37.90\00:01:45.56
ROUND. >>BILL: AND HOW
MANY OF THESE SISTERNS OR
00:01:45.56\00:01:50.13
TANKS DID YOU GUYS BUILD?
00:01:50.13\00:01:50.66
>>RON: THE PROJECT WAS
ACTUALLY VERY SUCCESSFUL.
00:01:50.66\00:01:56.26
WE WERE PLANNING
AROUND SIXTY AND MORE THAN
00:01:56.26\00:01:57.23
SEVENTY WERE COMPLETED.
00:01:57.23\00:01:59.80
>>BILL: WOW. AND THE
CAPACITY OF THESE TANKS
00:01:59.80\00:02:00.83
WAS ROUGHLY? WE'RE GOING
TO SEE IT ON A VIDEO RIGHT
00:02:00.83\00:02:04.56
NOW. >>RON: YES. WE WILL
SEE ON THE VIDEO. >>BILL:
00:02:04.56\00:02:08.00
VARIES FROM.>>RON:
15,000 LITRES ALL THE
00:02:08.00\00:02:08.90
WAY TO 70-80,000
LITRES, DEPENDING ON WHAT
00:02:08.90\00:02:12.76
YOU WANTED IT FOR. >>BILL
THIS WAS LOCAL TECHNOLOGY.
00:02:12.76\00:02:15.80
>>JAMES: YES AND AMAZINGLY
THE VILLAGERS TOLD US THE
00:02:15.80\00:02:16.86
WATER STAYS SWEET ALL
THE TIME IN THESE TANKS. IT'S
00:02:16.86\00:02:24.06
RAIN WATER, AFTER ALL.
NOT LIKE THE LOCAL SOURCES OF
00:02:24.06\00:02:28.40
WATER THAT THEY HAVE
WHICH IS EITHER SALTY OR HAS
00:02:28.40\00:02:29.43
LOTS OF CHEMICALS
IN IT THAT THEY DON'T
00:02:29.43\00:02:34.96
APPRECIATE. >>BILL:
WELL, THAT'S TERRIFIC. LET'S
00:02:34.96\00:02:37.76
HAVE A LOOK AT THE
VIDEO REPORT YOU GUYS HAVE
00:02:37.76\00:02:38.70
PREPARED. AND I AM
SURE THAT WILL GIVE ALL
00:02:38.70\00:02:42.86
OUR VIEWERS A BETTER
UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT
00:02:42.86\00:02:44.93
HAPPENED THERE.
00:02:44.93\00:02:47.86
>>FOR SOME, GIVING A
FINANCIAL GIFT IS STILL
00:02:48.86\00:02:49.83
NOT ENOUGH. THEY
WANT TO GET MORE DIRECTLY
00:02:49.83\00:02:52.90
INVOLVED. THEY WANT TO
VISIT THE COUNTRIES THAT
00:02:52.90\00:02:57.40
ADRA WORKS IN, MEET
THE PEOPLE, AND GET THEIR
00:02:57.40\00:02:58.40
HANDS DIRTY AS THEY WORK
SIDE BY SIDE WITH THEM ON
00:02:58.40\00:03:02.43
A COMMUNITY PROJECT.
FOR ALMOST TWENTY YEARS NOW,
00:03:02.43\00:03:07.40
STUDENT OF CANADIAN
UNIVERSITY COLLEGE HAVE
00:03:07.40\00:03:08.46
BEEN PARTNERING WITH
ADRA WORLD BUILDING SCHOOLS,
00:03:08.46\00:03:13.03
HEALTH CLINICS, AND WATER
SYSTEMS. THEIR MOST RECENT
00:03:13.03\00:03:17.70
PROJECT WAS IN THE ARID
SECTION OF NORTHERN BRAZIL
00:03:17.70\00:03:23.10
WHERE THEY WORKED
TOGETHER WITH THE LOCAL PEOPLE
00:03:23.10\00:03:24.13
TO INSTALL WATER STORAGE
TANKS, DESIGNED TO COLLECT
00:03:24.13\00:03:28.30
RAIN WATER FOR USE
DURING THE LONG DRY MONTHS WHEN
00:03:28.30\00:03:34.56
THERE IS NO RAIN.
00:03:34.56\00:03:37.13
>>TEAGAN: I HEARD
ABOUT A TRIP TO BRAZIL FROM A
00:03:54.80\00:03:55.83
FRIEND OF MINE WHO
WENT LAST YEAR. SHE WAS
00:03:55.83\00:03:58.56
THINKING ABOUT GOING
AGAIN THIS YEAR AND SHE
00:03:58.56\00:04:00.50
ENCOURAGED ME TO LOOK
INTO IT. I APPLIED, KIND OF, ON
00:04:00.50\00:04:01.60
THE SPUR OF THE
MOMENT TO BE HONEST, ENDED
00:04:01.60\00:04:05.26
UP GETTING ACCEPTED AND
DECIDED THAT PROBABLY IT
00:04:05.26\00:04:08.33
WAS A GOOD IDEA TO
GO TH. >>VANESSA: I
00:04:08.33\00:04:09.16
HEARD ABOUT BRAZIL AND
I THOUGHT, OH, BRAZIL'S A
00:04:09.16\00:04:12.06
NICE COUNTRY. I SHOULD
GO, I WENT TO THE INTERVIEW
00:04:12.06\00:04:15.40
AND THEN I GOT CHOSEN.
00:04:15.40\00:04:15.90
SO I'M HERE. >>ZACH: I
DECIDED TO COME BECAUSE I
00:04:15.90\00:04:18.53
WANTED TO HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO HELP PEOPLE
00:04:18.53\00:04:19.50
WHO HAD LESS THAN I
DID AND ALSO TO EXPERIENCE
00:04:19.50\00:04:25.66
ANOTHER CULTURE
>>ELIZABETH: SOMETHING
00:04:25.66\00:04:29.96
THAT I'VE ALWAYS THOUGHT
ABOUT DOING BECAUSE THAT'S
00:04:29.96\00:04:31.00
THE KIND OF WORK THAT
I'M INTERESTED IN DOING FOR A
00:04:31.00\00:04:34.16
CAREER WHICH IS WHAT I AM
STUDYING. I JUST SAW IT AS
00:04:34.16\00:04:37.33
MORE OF A CHANCE TO,
KIND OF, MAKE THAT NEXT
00:04:37.33\00:04:38.40
STEP TOWARDS FINDING
OUT EXACTLY WHAT I DO WANT
00:04:38.40\00:04:41.33
TO DO. >>YUSHI: WHEN
YOU WATCH NEWS ON TV OR YOU
00:04:41.33\00:04:44.80
SEE SO MANY PEOPLE
SUFFERING OR YOU SEE
00:04:44.80\00:04:45.66
POVERTY, LACK OF
FOOD, LACK OF WATER, SO MANY
00:04:45.66\00:04:51.23
PEOPLE SUFFERING. WHEN
I SEE IT I CAN'T JUST STAY
00:04:51.23\00:04:54.36
HOME AND SAY, THIS IS
BAD SOMEHOW WE NEED TO FIX
00:04:54.36\00:04:55.40
THIS. IT'S EASY TO SAY
BUT NOT MANY PEOPLE TAKE AN
00:04:55.40\00:04:59.83
ACTION. SO WHEN I SEE IT
I HAVE TO GET OUT THERE AND
00:04:59.83\00:05:04.46
HELP PEOPLE AND, YEAH,
THIS WAS JUST A PERFECT
00:05:04.46\00:05:05.46
OPPORTUNITY. >>CHERRY:
I FOUND OUT ABOUT THE TRIP
00:05:05.46\00:05:10.23
AT SCHOOL. THEY HAD
BOOTHS SET UP AND I JUST WANTED
00:05:10.23\00:05:14.76
TO THE EXPERIENCE
AND OPPORTUNITY TO HELP
00:05:14.76\00:05:15.70
PEOPLE. >>TIMOTHY: YOU
KNOW I'VE ALWAYS WANTED
00:05:15.70\00:05:20.03
TO GO ON A TRIP LIKE THIS
AND SEE HOW THESE KINDS OF
00:05:20.03\00:05:25.13
PROJECTS ARE RUN ON THE
GROUND LEVEL. BECAUSE IT'S
00:05:25.13\00:05:26.20
OBVIOUSLY MORE THAN
JUST GIVING MONEY TO SOMEONE
00:05:26.20\00:05:29.03
OVERSEAS AND THEN
SOMETHING JUST MAGICALLY
00:05:29.03\00:05:30.83
CONSTRUCTS. SO, JUST
TO SEE THINGS, HOW THEY
00:05:30.83\00:05:31.93
OPERATE AT THE GROUND
LEVEL UP IS REALLY, REALLY
00:05:31.93\00:05:34.90
COOL. TO BE INVOLVED IN
THAT IS EVEN MORE SPECIAL.
00:05:34.90\00:05:38.60
>>BRITTNEY: I HAVE
ALWAYS KNOWN ABOUT THESE TRIPS
00:05:38.60\00:05:39.73
AND HAVE HAD FRIENDS WHO
HAVE GONE IN THE PAST. SO,
00:05:39.73\00:05:42.70
EVERY YEAR THEY KIND OF
HAD THE TIME WHEN PEOPLE
00:05:42.70\00:05:47.03
SAY SIGN UP FOR MISSIONS
OR FOR THE ADRA TRIPS SO,
00:05:47.03\00:05:48.03
I PUT MY NAME DOWN.
JUST INTERESTED IN TRAVELLING
00:05:48.03\00:05:51.36
SOMEWHERE, BRAZIL
SOUNDED WONDERFUL AND I WAS ABLE
00:05:51.36\00:05:55.06
AND WILLING TO GO
SEE IF I COULD HELP THEM.
00:05:55.06\00:05:58.00
>>JAMES: WHEN THESE
CANADIAN YOUNG PEOPLE COME
00:06:01.06\00:06:02.06
HERE, THEY COME TO HELP.
00:06:02.06\00:06:04.23
BUT IT'S MORE THAN
JUST CANADIANS HELPING
00:06:04.23\00:06:05.13
BRAZILIANS. IT'S A
TWO-WAY STREET. IN ADRA CANADA
00:06:05.13\00:06:10.33
WE TALK ABOUT THE
WORD 'PARTNERSHIP' AND
00:06:10.33\00:06:14.70
PARTNERSHIP IS A WORD
USED BY MANY NON-GOVERNMENT
00:06:14.70\00:06:15.86
ORGANIZATIONS TO
DESCRIBE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN
00:06:15.86\00:06:20.26
PEOPLE IN THE NORTH AND
PEOPLE IN THE SOUTH. WHEN
00:06:20.26\00:06:27.76
CANADIAN YOUNG PEOPLE
COME TO HELP THIS VILLAGE,
00:06:27.76\00:06:28.80
THEY'RE GIVING A HAND
BUT THEY'RE ALSO COMING TO
00:06:28.80\00:06:30.73
LEARN. LEARN ABOUT LIFE
IN A RURAL COMMUNITY IN A
00:06:30.73\00:06:35.46
DEVELOPING WORLD.
00:06:35.46\00:06:35.86
>>TIMOTHY: THE
PEOPLE ARE AMAZING.
00:06:35.86\00:06:38.26
>>VANESSA: THEY'RE ALWAYS
OFFERING TEA AND BISCUITS.
00:06:39.80\00:06:41.00
AND THEY'RE REALLY
FRIENDLY. AND I GUESS
00:06:41.00\00:06:43.50
IT'S RIGHT WHEN PEOPLE
SAY THAT THE POOREST ARE THE
00:06:43.50\00:06:48.03
HAPPIEST BECAUSE
THEY'RE CONTENT WITH WHAT THEY
00:06:48.03\00:06:49.00
HAVE. >>TEAGAN:
THEY'RE MORE RELAXED THAN THEY
00:06:49.00\00:06:54.33
ARE IN CANADA. THAT'S
WHAT THEY ARE, TO BE HONEST.
00:06:54.33\00:06:57.26
THEY TELL US TO SLOW
DOWN ALL THE TIME. 'HERE, TAKE
00:06:57.26\00:06:58.30
A BREAK. YOU'RE
BEING CRAZY. IT'S TOO HOT
00:06:58.30\00:07:00.66
OUTSIDE TO DO THIS.'
SO THEY BRING US TEA AND
00:07:00.66\00:07:03.60
STUFF LIKE THAT TO TRY
AND GET US TO SLOW DOWN A BIT
00:07:03.60\00:07:04.76
>>BRITTNEY: MEETING
THE PEOPLE OF BRAZIL, IT IS
00:07:04.76\00:07:06.80
AMAZING. THEY'RE JUST
SO WARM AND THEIR BODY
00:07:06.80\00:07:11.03
LANGUAGE AND THE LOOK
IN THEIR EYES WHEN YOU EVEN
00:07:11.03\00:07:12.03
FIRST MEET THEM IT'S
UNFORGETTABLE. THE PEOPLE
00:07:12.03\00:07:15.23
OF BRAZIL, IN THE AREAS
WE'VE BEEN WORKING, DON'T
00:07:15.23\00:07:19.76
SEEM TO HAVE A LOT.
00:07:19.76\00:07:20.23
THEY'RE VERY CHEERFUL,
WONDERFUL PEOPLE AND SEEM
00:07:20.23\00:07:23.76
SATISFIED WITH WHERE
THEY'RE AT. THE HOUSES
00:07:23.76\00:07:24.70
ARE VERY SMALL, YET, TIDY.
00:07:24.70\00:07:27.50
THEY TAKE A LOT OF
PRIDE IN WHERE THEY LIVE.
00:07:27.50\00:07:28.43
NO ONE SEEMS, THAT
WE'VE ENCOUNTERED YET, IS
00:07:28.43\00:07:32.60
WEALTHY. >>TIMOTHY:
YEAH, THESE PEOPLE PRACTICE
00:07:32.60\00:07:35.26
SUBSISTENCE FARMING;
DONKEYS, CHICKENS, PIGS
00:07:35.26\00:07:36.23
>>BRITTNEY: THERE'S
ALWAYS GOATS, THERE'S DONKEYS,
00:07:36.23\00:07:40.26
THERE'S ALWAYS LARGE,
LARGE PIGS. >>YUSHI: THEIR
00:07:40.26\00:07:43.00
WAY OF MAKING MONEY
ISN'T SIMILAR TO OURS. I DON'T
00:07:43.00\00:07:44.10
THINK THEY'RE TRYING TO
MAKE A PROFIT, WHATSOEVER.
00:07:44.10\00:07:48.50
THEY'RE NOT REALLY
MAKING BUSINESS, THEY'RE TRYING
00:07:48.50\00:07:52.23
TO LIVE. THEIR MAIN GOAL
IS TO SURVIVE. >>TIMOTHY:
00:07:52.23\00:07:53.23
YOU LOOK AT BACK HOME
AND, LIKE, ALL THE, WHENEVER
00:07:53.23\00:07:57.36
YOU LOOK AT THE GROUND
THERE'S THIS NICE BLACK
00:07:57.36\00:08:00.33
TOPSOIL AND HERE
EVERYTHING JUST GROWS
00:08:00.33\00:08:01.16
ON THE SAND. YOU CAN
UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE HERE
00:08:01.16\00:08:04.80
STRUGGLE TO, KIND OF,
MAKE A LIVING IN SUBSISTENCE
00:08:04.80\00:08:07.76
FARMING HERE AND
THAT'S BECAUSE IT'S YOUR ONLY
00:08:07.76\00:08:08.76
OPTION. YOU CAN'T DO
AS MUCH AS YOU CAN AT HOME
00:08:08.76\00:08:12.73
BECAUSE THE LAND
ISN'T NEARLY AS FERTILE.
00:08:12.73\00:08:16.60
>>JAMES: WATER IS SUCH
AN ESSENTIAL PART OF OUR
00:08:17.23\00:08:18.20
LIFE. WHEN WE IN
CANADA TURN OUR TAP AND GET
00:08:18.20\00:08:20.93
OUR WATER IMMEDIATELY,
WE FORGET THAT FOR MANY
00:08:20.93\00:08:23.83
PEOPLE IN THE WORLD
GETTING WATER INVOLVES
00:08:23.83\00:08:24.76
CARRYING A BIG CONTAINER
ON THEIR HEAD AND WALKING
00:08:24.76\00:08:29.70
A BIG DISTANCE OF MAYBE
1 TO 5 KM TO THE NEAREST
00:08:29.70\00:08:33.66
STREAM OR WELL AND THEN
CARRYING THAT WATER BACK
00:08:33.66\00:08:34.66
HOME. THAT MEANS THAT
WATER JUST FOR COOKING AND
00:08:34.66\00:08:38.93
DRINKING AND BATHING IS
AT A PREMIUM. MOST PEOPLE PAY
00:08:38.93\00:08:45.26
FAR MORE OF THEIR DAILY
INCOME FOR WATER THAN WE
00:08:45.26\00:08:46.26
CAN EVER IMAGINE. YET,
00:08:46.26\00:08:46.73
WATER IS THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH,
00:08:53.10\00:08:54.13
BETWEEN HEALTH AND
00:08:54.13\00:08:54.53
SICKNESS. HAVING A
GOOD SUPPLY OF WATER MEANS
00:08:57.60\00:08:58.60
THAT THE MOTHER CAN
COOK ADEQUATE, NUTRIOUS
00:08:58.60\00:09:02.20
MEALS; SHE CAN BATHE HER
CHILDREN; AND THAT THERE'S
00:09:02.20\00:09:06.80
WATER FOR THE
ACTIVITIES AROUND THE HOME;
00:09:06.80\00:09:07.63
ESPECIALLY TO MAKE
SURE THE GARDEN IS GROWNING.
00:09:07.63\00:09:12.76
WHEN WE LOOK AT THE
IMPORTANCE OF WATER,
00:09:13.46\00:09:14.36
WE KNOW THAT SO
MANY COMMUNITIES HAVE
00:09:14.36\00:09:16.50
DIFFICULTY OBTAINING
GOOD CLEAN WATER. HERE IN THIS
00:09:16.50\00:09:21.73
RURAL AREA IN CENTRAL
BRAZIL, THE RAINS COME
00:09:21.73\00:09:22.70
SOME YEARS BUT NOT OTHERS.
00:09:22.70\00:09:27.20
HOW THEN DO FAMILIES COPE?
00:09:27.20\00:09:27.86
ONE WAY THAT THEY CAN
LIVE THROUGH THE BAD TIMES IS
00:09:27.86\00:09:34.90
BY HAVING ADEQUATE WATER
STORAGE. MAKING SURE THAT
00:09:34.90\00:09:35.90
THEY CAPTURE THE RAIN
WHEN IT COMES AND THEN HAVING
00:09:35.90\00:09:40.13
IT FOR THE GARDEN; FOR
DRINKING; FOR COOKING; FOR
00:09:40.13\00:09:44.53
BATHING; AND THE REST
OF THE YEAR. >>TEAGAN: OUR
00:09:44.53\00:09:45.53
GROUP HAS BEEN PART OF
AN EFFORT TO BUILD I THINK
00:09:45.53\00:09:49.36
IT'S ABOUT 70
SISTERNS IN THE AREA BY ADRA.
00:09:49.36\00:09:53.00
>>BRITTNEY: WE'RE
SURELY FINDING THAT WHAT PEOPLE
00:09:53.00\00:09:54.10
ARE DRINKING IS NOT
CONSABLE, BY MY OPINION,
00:09:54.10\00:09:56.60
BUT, OF COURSE, THEY ARE
DRINKING IT REGARDLESS. SO
00:09:56.60\00:10:00.00
WE'VE BEEN BUILDING
THESE SISTERNS.>>TIMOTHY: THE
00:10:00.00\00:10:01.03
WAY THEY'RE BUILDING IS
THEY MAKE PLATES AND THEN
00:10:01.03\00:10:03.96
THEY MAKE A BASE FOR
THE SISTERN, THEY SET IT ALL
00:10:03.96\00:10:09.36
TOGETHER, AND THEN
THEY MAKE CEMENT TO HELP MUD
00:10:09.36\00:10:10.40
THE SIDES AND ERECT IT.
00:10:10.40\00:10:13.13
THEY THE RAIN WATER
RUNS OFF OF THE ROOF INTO THE
00:10:13.13\00:10:14.10
SISTERN AND THAT 'S
HOW PEOPLE GET THEIR FRESH
00:10:14.10\00:10:18.16
WATER. >>ZACH: I HAVE
MOSTLY BEEN DOING DIGGING
00:10:18.16\00:10:20.93
IN HOLES. YOU KNOW,
PICK AXING THE ROCK AND STUFF
00:10:20.93\00:10:22.00
LIKE THAT AND MIXING
CEMENT. >>BRITTNEY: FIRST
00:10:22.00\00:10:25.86
IT WAS DIGGING HOLES.
00:10:25.86\00:10:26.33
WE'VE GOT THESE HOLES
WHICH IS EITHER CLAY OR
00:10:26.33\00:10:29.90
SOME KIND OF DIRTY SAND
AT ONE POINT IT WAS JUST
00:10:29.90\00:10:34.40
ROCKS. SO WE GAVE UP AND
LET THE GUYS DO THAT. BUT,
00:10:34.40\00:10:35.43
YEAH, SO I CAN DIG A
HOLE NOW. AND THEN THE FUN
00:10:35.43\00:10:39.10
COMES WHEN YOU GET TO
BACKFILL IT BACK IN. SO,
00:10:39.10\00:10:43.16
IT'S LIKE TUESDAY AND
WE'LL DIG THE HOLE AND
00:10:43.16\00:10:44.13
THEN THURSDAY WE'LL
FILL IT BACK IN THE SAME
00:10:44.13\00:10:46.46
WAY. AND THEN, IN BETWEEN,
WE'LL BUILD CEMENT PLAQUES
00:10:46.46\00:10:50.80
TO ACTUALLY FORM THE
SISTERN AND THEN YOU'VE
00:10:50.80\00:10:51.90
GOT TO WAIT A FEW DAYS
FOR THEM TO DRY. IN THE
00:10:51.90\00:10:55.30
MEANTIME YOU SIFT SAND
AND YOU SIFT SAND AND YOU SIFT
00:10:55.30\00:10:59.73
SAND AND SOMETIMES YOU
SORT ROCKS. >>TEAGAN: FOR
00:10:59.73\00:11:00.80
SOME REASON MY ACTIVITIES
SEEM TO INVOLVE A LOT OF
00:11:00.80\00:11:04.16
THE HEAVIER WORK. THEY
DON'T SEEM TO NOTICE MY
00:11:04.16\00:11:08.33
DELICATE SIDE. SO,
FOR SOME REASON I'VE BEEN
00:11:08.33\00:11:09.26
THE GUY WHO GETS TO
CARRY CEMENT, GET SAND, DIG
00:11:09.26\00:11:14.56
HOLES, SWING PICK AXES,
MIX CEMENT. I'VE BEEN ABLE
00:11:14.56\00:11:21.10
TO ACTUALLY, A COUPLE
TIMES I'VE BEEN ABLE TO
00:11:21.10\00:11:22.10
LEARN A COUPLE THINGS
ABOUT ACTUALLY BUILDING
00:11:22.10\00:11:25.30
THE SISTERN, SOME OF
THE CEMENT WORK ITSELF. BUT
00:11:25.30\00:11:27.43
MOST OF THE
TIME IT'S GRUNT WORK.
00:11:27.43\00:11:29.56
>>JAMES: HERE IS A
COMPLETED WATER STORAGE
00:11:30.16\00:11:31.10
TANK. YOU CAN SEE
THE EAVESTROUGH BEHIND
00:11:31.10\00:11:33.53
ME FROM THE ROOF WITH THE
PIPES LEADING TO THE WATER
00:11:33.53\00:11:38.56
STORAGE TANK HERE ITSELF.
00:11:38.56\00:11:39.10
THANKS TO YOUR SUPPORT
OF ADRA AND THE COMMUNITY
00:11:39.10\00:11:42.40
SPIRIT OF THE PEOPLE
HERE IN THIS AREA AND THE
00:11:42.40\00:11:43.36
PARTICIPATION OF AN
EAGER GROUP OF CANADIAN YOUNG
00:11:43.36\00:11:49.53
PEOPLE, THERE ARE A LOT
OF HAPPY FAMILIES NOW IN THIS
00:11:49.53\00:11:54.03
AREA IN CENTRAL BRAZIL.
00:11:54.03\00:11:57.10
>>JOAO: IN A FEW
MTHS FROM NOW I WILL BE 80
00:11:57.70\00:11:58.66
YEARS OLD. I HAVE LIVED
MY WHOLE LIFE HERE IN THIS
00:11:58.66\00:12:01.96
PART OF BRAZIL. BEFORE
WATER TANKS CAME TO OUR
00:12:01.96\00:12:08.20
COMMUNITY WE USED TO HAVE
TO GO ABOUT 6KM TO COLLECT
00:12:08.20\00:12:09.26
WATER. WE WOULD HAUL
IT HOME ON THE BACKS OF
00:12:09.26\00:12:12.96
DONKEYS. THERE HAVE
BEEN MANY TIMES THROUGHOUT MY
00:12:12.96\00:12:17.63
LIFE WHEN WE HAVE HAD
SUCH SEVERE DROUGHT THAT OUR
00:12:17.63\00:12:18.70
ANIMALS HAVE DIED
BECAUSE WE DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH
00:12:18.70\00:12:22.26
WATER TO GIVE THEM.
DURING THESE TIMES IT WAS VERY
00:12:22.26\00:12:26.53
TOUGH EVEN FOR US TO
SURVIVE. HAVING THESE
00:12:26.53\00:12:27.40
WATER TANKS RIGHT BY
OUR HOMES HAS REALLY CHANGED
00:12:27.40\00:12:32.46
OUR LIVES. THE WATER
THAT WE USED TO COLLECT FROM
00:12:32.46\00:12:36.93
THE LAKE WAS VERY SALTY.
00:12:36.93\00:12:37.43
SOMETIMES IT WAS VERY
HARD FOR ME TO EVEN EAT MY
00:12:37.43\00:12:41.93
DINNER BECAUSE THE
WATER THAT WE WERE USING WOULD
00:12:41.93\00:12:42.90
MAKE OUR FOOD SO SALTY.
00:12:42.90\00:12:47.76
NOW, THE WATER WE ARE
USING IS CLEAN RAIN WATER
00:12:47.76\00:12:48.90
AND BECAUSE WE HAVE THE
TANKS WE WILL ALWAYS HAVE
00:12:48.90\00:12:52.40
ENOUGH. EVEN THROUGH THE
DRY MONTHS. OUR ANIMALS NO
00:12:52.40\00:12:57.83
LONGER DIE. AND THE
HEALTH OF OUR CHILDREN HAS
00:12:57.83\00:12:58.93
REALLY IMPROVED. I
DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU HAVE
00:12:58.93\00:13:03.83
COME BUT I THANK YOU
VERY MUCH. >>ELINA: WHEN YOU
00:13:03.83\00:13:11.66
LIVE IN THE DESERT YOU
SOON REALIZE THAT WATER IS
00:13:11.66\00:13:12.70
LIFE. ACCESSIBLE WATER
HAS IMPROVED OUR VILLAGE
00:13:12.70\00:13:17.70
LIFE. THE WATER TANKS
HAVE BROUGHT HOPE TO OUR
00:13:17.70\00:13:21.66
COMMUNITY. IT WAS A
TOTAL SURPRISE TO US TO SEE
00:13:21.66\00:13:22.66
THESE YOUNG PEOPLE
COME FROM CANADA TO HELP US
00:13:22.66\00:13:26.83
HERE. THE TANKS THAT
THEY ARE BUILDING NEXT TO THE
00:13:26.83\00:13:30.83
SCHOOL WILL NOT ONLY
BE USED BY THE STUDENTS
00:13:30.83\00:13:31.80
DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR
BUT WILL ALSO BE USED AS
00:13:31.80\00:13:35.40
A COMMUNITY TANK IN
TIMES OF EMERGENCY. NOW THAT WE
00:13:35.40\00:13:40.73
HAVE TANKS TO STORE
WATER WHENEVER THERE IS AN
00:13:40.73\00:13:41.70
EXTENDED DROUGHT OR
EVEN THE WATER IN THE TANKS
00:13:41.70\00:13:45.70
DRY UP, THE GOVERNMENT
CAN SEND TRUCKS TO FILL OUR
00:13:45.70\00:13:49.50
TANKS WITH WATER FROM
OTHER PARTS OF BRAZIL.
00:13:49.50\00:13:50.46
WE NOW FEEL WATER SECURE.
00:13:50.46\00:13:55.90
>>JOSE: IT IS VERY
DIFFICULT TO LIVE HERE IN
00:13:55.90\00:13:56.83
THIS PART OF BRAZIL.
IT IS HOT MOST OF THE YEAR
00:13:56.83\00:14:03.83
AND WE DO NOT HAVE
ANY MACHINERY. IT IS ALL
00:14:03.83\00:14:08.93
MANUAL WORK. IN
DECEMBER AND JANUARY WE GET RAIN
00:14:08.93\00:14:09.93
BUT THEN FOR THE NEXT
SIX MONTHS OR SO WE HAVE NO
00:14:09.93\00:14:16.73
RAIN. THE DRY SEASON IS
VERY LONG. THE LAKE WHERE
00:14:16.73\00:14:22.26
WE HAVE BEEN GETTING
OUR WATER OFTEN DRIES UP
00:14:22.26\00:14:23.20
MAKING IT VERY
DIFFICULT FOR US, ESPECIALLY OUR
00:14:23.20\00:14:27.26
ANIMALS. THE WATER THAT
WE GET FROM THE LAKE IS VERY
00:14:27.26\00:14:32.00
SALTY AND CAUSES
STOMACH PROBLEMS, HEADACHES, AND
00:14:32.00\00:14:32.96
SICKNESS. NOW, WITH
THESE TANKS BY OUR HOUSE WE
00:14:32.96\00:14:38.13
WILL HAVE WATER SECURITY
YEAR ROUND. ONCE THE WATER
00:14:38.13\00:14:44.36
STARTS TO FILL UP OUR
TANK WE PLAN TO JUST USE IT FOR
00:14:44.36\00:14:45.46
DRINKING. FOR ME, IT
WAS REALLY GREAT TO HAVE THE
00:14:45.46\00:14:51.10
STUDENTS FROM CANADA
COME TO VISIT OUR COMMUNITY.
00:14:51.10\00:14:55.83
THEY DIDN'T COME JUST TO
LOOK AND SEE OUR PROBLEMS
00:14:55.83\00:14:56.83
THEY CAME TO WORK AND
HELP MAKE OUR LIVES BETTER.
00:14:56.83\00:15:01.83
EVEN IN OUR WILDEST
DREAMS WE NEVER THOUGHT THAT
00:15:01.83\00:15:08.10
PEOPLE WOULD COME FROM
SO FAR AWAY TO HELP US. WE
00:15:08.10\00:15:09.13
ARE SO GREATFUL FOR THE HELP.
00:15:09.13\00:15:15.13
>>MARILLIS: IN THE PAST
IT HAS BEEN VERY DIFFICULT
00:15:16.10\00:15:17.16
TO LIVE IN THIS PART
OF BRAZIL BECAUSE OF THE
00:15:17.16\00:15:20.23
LACK OF WATER. OUR CLOSEST
SOURCE OF WATER WAS ABOUT
00:15:20.23\00:15:23.40
2KM FROM OUR HOUSE.
00:15:23.40\00:15:23.86
DURING THE RAINY SEASON
A LAKE FORMS NEARBY AND OUR
00:15:23.86\00:15:29.36
CHILDREN WOULD GO
WITH DONKEYS TO COLLECT THE
00:15:29.36\00:15:30.33
WATER. THAT WATER WAS
VERY SALTY AND QUITE DIRTY.
00:15:30.33\00:15:34.56
SOMETIMES WHEN THE
LAKE DRIED UP, MY CHILDREN
00:15:34.56\00:15:41.16
WOULD HAVE TO GO FURTHER
TO FIND WATER. OFTEN THEY
00:15:41.16\00:15:42.30
WOULD HAVE TO MISS SCHOOL
SO THAT THEY COULD COLLECT
00:15:42.30\00:15:46.53
THE WATER THAT WE WOULD
NEED. WE ARE VERY EXCITED
00:15:46.53\00:15:50.66
NOW BECAUSE WE HAVE A
LAKE, SO TO SPEAK, RIGHT
00:15:50.66\00:15:51.63
BY OUR HOUSE. I AM SO
GREATFUL FOR WHAT ADRA
00:15:51.63\00:15:57.86
HAS DONE. IT HAS BEEN A
BIG DREAM OF MINE FOR MANY
00:15:57.86\00:16:02.83
YEARS TO HAVE A WATER
TANK RIGHT BY OUR HOUSE. I HAVE
00:16:02.83\00:16:03.93
SEEN THEN IN SOME OF THE
OTHER VILLAGES NEARBY BUT
00:16:03.93\00:16:10.23
I NEVER THOUGHT THAT WE
WOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE ONE
00:16:10.23\00:16:14.33
IN OUR FAVELA BECAUSE OF
THE COST. I AM SO GREATFUL
00:16:14.33\00:16:15.36
TO ADRA FOR BRINGING
WATER TO OUR HOME. I CAN'T TELL
00:16:15.36\00:16:20.30
YOU HOW MUCH THIS MEANS
TO ME. AND THE YOUNG PEOPLE
00:16:20.30\00:16:25.13
FROM CANADA THAT CAME
TO HELP US BUILD THE TANK,
00:16:25.13\00:16:26.13
THAT WAS SO WONDERFUL.
00:16:26.13\00:16:31.60
THEY ARE SUCH GOOD PEOPLE.
00:16:31.60\00:16:32.30
I NEVER THOUGHT THAT
ANYONE WOULD COME FROM SO
00:16:32.30\00:16:36.46
FAR AWAY TO HELP US.
SINCE THEY MOVED ON TO HELP
00:16:36.46\00:16:37.50
ANOTHER COMMUNITY, OUR
WHOLE FAMILY MISSES THEM.
00:16:37.50\00:16:41.86
>>MARIA: I HAVE LIVED MY
WHOLE LIFE IN THIS PART OF
00:16:41.86\00:16:48.60
BRAZIL. IT HAS NOT
BEEN EASY. IT TAKES A LOT OF
00:16:48.60\00:16:49.63
HARD WORK TO MAKE A
LIVING IN THE DESERT. THE MOST
00:16:49.63\00:16:55.43
DIFFICULT PART IS SECURING
WATER. I HAVE HAD ELEVEN
00:16:55.43\00:16:59.83
CHILDREN AND I CAN'T
EVEN BEGIN TO COUNT MY
00:16:59.83\00:17:00.83
GRANDCHILDREN. I DON'T
HAVE ENOUGH FINGERS ON MY
00:17:00.83\00:17:05.00
HANDS FOR THAT. WHILE MY
LIFE IS VERY FULL AND I AM
00:17:05.00\00:17:09.93
VERY HAPPY, WE HAVE
SPENT OUR ENTIRE LIVES WORRYING
00:17:09.93\00:17:11.06
ABOUT WHERE TO GET WATER.
00:17:11.06\00:17:15.30
NOW THAT ADRA AND THE
YOUNG PEOPLE FROM CANADA
00:17:15.30\00:17:16.26
HAVE BUILT A WATER TANK
RIGHT BESIDE OUR HOME, I
00:17:16.26\00:17:21.43
FEEL LIKE A WORRY HAS
BEEN LIFTED FROM MY HEART. I
00:17:21.43\00:17:25.40
NOW FEEL SAFE AND SECURE.
00:17:25.40\00:17:25.93
I COULD NOT BELIEVE
HOW HARD THE STUDENTS FROM
00:17:25.93\00:17:30.30
CANADA WORKED. EVEN THE
GIRLS WERE VERY DEDICATED
00:17:30.30\00:17:31.33
IT WAS DIFFICULT TO
GET THEM TO EVEN STOP AND
00:17:31.33\00:17:36.53
DRINK A LITTLE TEA. WE
ARE SO VERY GREATFUL TO THEM
00:17:36.53\00:17:40.30
FOR COMING SO FAR TO
HELP US HAVE A HEALTHIER LIFE
00:17:40.30\00:17:43.76
>>JAMES: WHAT DOES
'PARTNERSHIP' MEAN? IT
00:17:49.13\00:17:50.03
INVOLVES COMING TO
HELP YOUR NEIGHBOUR EVEN IF
00:17:50.03\00:17:52.06
YOUR NEIGHBOUR IS
HALFWAY AROUND THE WORLD. BUT IT
00:17:52.06\00:17:56.73
ALSO MEANS LEARNING
ABOUT THE QUALITY OF LIFE. WE
00:17:56.73\00:17:57.76
HAVE SO MUCH TO LEARN
FROM PEOPLE WHO HAVE LONG KNOWN
00:17:57.76\00:18:02.26
THE IMPORTANCE OF LIVING
TOGETHER AND WORKING AS A
00:18:02.26\00:18:08.56
COMMUNITY. APPRECIATING
FAMILY, ENJOYING LAUGHTER,
00:18:08.56\00:18:09.63
THE SIMPLE THINGS IN LIFE.
00:18:09.63\00:18:15.50
>>TIMOTHY: THE PEOPLE
ARE REALLY INVITING. WE WORK
00:18:16.73\00:18:17.86
HARD AND THEY SEE THAT
SO THEY JUST WANT TO BE ABLE
00:18:17.86\00:18:21.36
TO GIVE SOMETHING BACK TO
US. THEY'RE REALLY, REALLY
00:18:21.36\00:18:24.06
GLAD TO HAVE US HERE.
SO, THESE OLD LADIES THEY'LL
00:18:24.06\00:18:25.16
BRING OUT TEA FOR US
AND COOKIES. YOU KNOW, JUST
00:18:25.16\00:18:28.70
SMILE. AND EVENTHOUGH
WE CAN'T COMMUNICATE AT THE
00:18:28.70\00:18:31.76
END OF THE DAY ONE OF
THE MOST REWARDING THINGS IS
00:18:31.76\00:18:32.90
JUST THE PEOPLES SMILES.
00:18:32.90\00:18:37.36
AND HOW, EVEN WITHOUT
TALKING, WE'VE CONNECTED
00:18:37.36\00:18:38.33
WITH THEM. >>BRITTNEY:
I'M ACTUALLY THANKFUL FOR THE
00:18:38.33\00:18:41.13
LANGUAGE BARRIER. IT'S
SUCH A BLESSING. JUST TO
00:18:41.13\00:18:44.13
HAVE TO DEPEND ON
THESE FACIAL EXPRESSIONS
00:18:44.13\00:18:45.06
OF EXCHANGE, THAT'S
OUR LANGUAGE, JUST FACIAL
00:18:45.06\00:18:47.13
EXPRESSION AND EMBRACES
ONCE WE GET TO KNOW EACH
00:18:47.13\00:18:50.70
OTHER. BUT THEY'RE SO
WARM. THEY'RE EYES ARE
00:18:50.70\00:18:51.73
DYNAMIC. THEY SMILE
FROM, LIKE, THE WHOLE WORLD
00:18:51.73\00:18:54.53
ACROSS. >>ZACH: I THINK
THE BEST MOMENT FROM THIS
00:18:54.53\00:18:57.86
TRIP FOR ME WOULD JUST
BE THE GRATITUDE THAT PEOPLE
00:18:57.86\00:18:59.03
HAVE EXPRESSED TOWARD US.
00:18:59.03\00:19:02.23
ONE GUY DESCRIBED US AS
SONS OF GOD. HE WAS JUST
00:19:02.23\00:19:03.23
SO GREATFUL THAT WE
WERE GIVING HIM WATER.
00:19:03.23\00:19:07.06
>>ELIZABETH: JUST SITTING
OUT IN THE EVENINGS AFTER
00:19:07.06\00:19:11.10
WE'RE DONE FOR THE
DAY, WE'RE DONE WITH ALL OUR
00:19:11.10\00:19:12.13
RESPONSIBILITIES. AND
THE KIDS WOULD COME AND THEY
00:19:12.13\00:19:14.76
WOULD JUST PLAY GAMES,
BRING OUT THE DOMINOS AND
00:19:14.76\00:19:20.13
TRY TO.IT'S ALWAYS FUN
TRYING TO PLAY GAMES LIKE
00:19:20.13\00:19:21.26
THAT WITH PEOPLE THAT
YOU CAN'T REALLY COMMUNICATE
00:19:21.26\00:19:25.53
WITH, WITH LANGUAGE.
AND IT'S JUST FUN BECAUSE IT
00:19:25.53\00:19:29.70
GIVES YOU A COMMON BOND.
00:19:29.70\00:19:30.20
>>YUSHI: KIND. I'M
SUPER SURPRISED HOW KIND THEY
00:19:30.20\00:19:34.06
ARE. WE ARE FOREIGNERS.
WE KIND OF STAND OUT IN THE
00:19:34.06\00:19:35.10
TOWN BUT THEY.AS SOON
AS THEY SEE US THEY COME TO
00:19:35.10\00:19:42.16
US AND TRY TO GET TO
KNOW US. THEY WANT TO KNOW OUR
00:19:42.16\00:19:46.13
NAMES, WHERE WE'RE FROM.
00:19:46.13\00:19:46.63
EVEN THOUGH WE CAN'T
COMMUNICATE EFFECTIVELY
00:19:46.63\00:19:50.56
THEY STILL WANT TO
PLAY WITH US. IT'S REALLY,
00:19:50.56\00:19:51.56
REALLY GOOD.
>>BRITTNEY: I'LL REMEMBER THE
00:19:51.56\00:19:56.06
MOST OF ANYTHING HERE.

>>JAMES: PROFESSOR
PAUL LEHMANN AND PROFESSOR
00:20:01.53\00:20:02.53
DONNALEE LEHMANN ARE
FROM CANADIAN UNIVERSITY
00:20:02.53\00:20:05.00
COLLEGE. THEY HAVE BEEN
INVOLVED WITH ADRA CANADA
00:20:05.00\00:20:07.93
AND CUC PROJECTS FOR A
NUMBER OF YEARS. WHAT ARE
00:20:07.93\00:20:08.93
THEIR THOUGHTS ON
THIS PARTNERSHIP AND THE
00:20:08.93\00:20:14.83
INVOLVEMENT OF
CANADIAN YOUTH IN PROJECTS
00:20:14.83\00:20:18.93
OVERSEAS? >>PROFESSOR
PAUL: ADRA CANADA HAS BEEN
00:20:18.93\00:20:19.96
DOING THESE PROJECTS IN
CONJUNCTION WITH CANADIAN
00:20:19.96\00:20:22.20
UNIVERSITY COLLEGE
FOR CLOSE TO 20 YEARS. IN
00:20:22.20\00:20:27.90
THOSE YEARS, I'VE
PROBABLY GONE TO AT LEAST
00:20:27.90\00:20:28.80
15 DIFFERENT COUNTRIES.
00:20:28.80\00:20:31.26
>>PROFESSOR DONNALEE:
I'VE BEEN INVOLVED WITH
00:20:31.26\00:20:32.26
THE ADRA PROGRAM THAT'S
INVOLVED WITH CUC FOR FOUR
00:20:32.26\00:20:37.06
PROJECTS. AND THE FIRST
PROJECT WAS TO PURUSE THAT
00:20:37.06\00:20:40.03
THE ASPECT OF BEING
ABLE TO RECOGNIZE THAT
00:20:40.03\00:20:40.96
THE WORLD IS BIGGER
THAN THEMSELVES. BIGGER
00:20:40.96\00:20:44.83
THAN THEIR OWN COUNTRY.

>>PROFESSOR PAUL: FROM
A TELEVISION PERSPECTIVE
00:20:48.13\00:20:49.10
THE CHILDREN TEND TO
UNDERSTAND THAT THE WORLD
00:20:49.10\00:20:50.80
THAT THEY LIVE IN BUT
THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE
00:20:50.80\00:20:52.73
PERSPECTIVE UNTIL THEY
ARE ACTUALLY IN A DEVELOPING
00:20:52.73\00:20:53.76
COUNTRY, SEEING KIDS
LIVING ON THE STREET,
00:20:53.76\00:20:56.86
PEOPLE TAKING
BATTERIES APART ON THE STREET TO
00:20:56.86\00:21:00.96
SURVIVE. THOSE THINGS
THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND UNTIL
00:21:00.96\00:21:02.00
THEY SEE IT, EXPERIENCE
IT, TASTE THE FOOD, SMELL
00:21:02.00\00:21:05.76
THE STREETS, INTERACT
WITH THE CHILDREN; SEE THE
00:21:05.76\00:21:12.26
DISEASE, THE UNDERDEVELOPMENT
00:21:12.26\00:21:12.93
>>PROFESSOR DONNALEE:
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE'VE
00:21:12.93\00:21:16.13
NOTICED WITH STUDENTS
COMING ON PROJECTS LIKE
00:21:16.13\00:21:19.13
THIS IS REALLY NO IDEA
OF WDO YOU DO IN A COUNTRYAT
00:21:19.13\00:21:24.66
THAT NEEDS SOME KIND OF
WORK DONE FOR PEOPLE WHO
00:21:24.66\00:21:25.66
ARE DISADVANTAGED? AND,
THE STUDENTS, IT'S AMAZING
00:21:25.66\00:21:30.06
WHAT THEY GAIN FROM THIS
AND STARTING TO UNDERSTAND
00:21:30.06\00:21:35.20
HOW SIMPLE IT IS TO DO
SOMETHING FOR A COMMUNITY
00:21:35.20\00:21:36.20
WITH SUCH FEW TOOLS AND
STILL BE ABLE TO COME UP
00:21:36.20\00:21:41.83
WITH SOMETHING THAT
WORKS WELL AND BENEFITS THE
00:21:41.83\00:21:45.33
LIFESTYLE OF THE PEOPLE
THAT WE'RE WORKING WITH.
00:21:45.33\00:21:49.06
>>JAMES: WHY SHOULD WE
CARE ABOUT WHETHER OTHER
00:21:49.56\00:21:50.53
PEOPLE HAVE A
DIFFICUT LIFE OR NOT? WHETHER
00:21:50.53\00:21:52.03
A POOR FARMING COMMUNITY
HERE IN THE CENTRAL PART
00:21:52.03\00:21:55.43
OF BRAZIL HAS ENOUGH
WATER TO DRINK? CANADIANS VALUES
00:21:55.43\00:21:56.53
DICTATE THAT WE DO
CARE ABOUT HOW OTHER PEOPLE
00:21:56.53\00:22:01.23
ARE ABLE TO LIVE. WE
ALSO UNDERSTAND MORE AND MORE
00:22:01.23\00:22:05.90
THAT WE LIVE IN A GLOBAL
VILLAGE AND WHEN EVERYONES
00:22:05.90\00:22:07.03
NEEDS ARE MET THEN WE
ALL ENJOY A BETTER STANDARD
00:22:07.03\00:22:12.26
OF LIVING AND A
BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE. THE
00:22:12.26\00:22:16.93
PEOPLE OF THIS
COMMUNITY ARE GREATFUL FOR THE
00:22:16.93\00:22:17.86
SUPPORT THAT HAS BEEN
GIVEN TO THEM BY CIDA,
00:22:17.86\00:22:22.33

CANADA, RONALD KUHN,
BUSY HELPING WITH THE WATER
00:22:40.43\00:22:46.13
PROJECT. HE'S BUSY
SHOWING US THE WAY SO I GUESS
00:22:46.13\00:22:47.26
I BETTER GET STARTED AS
WELL. >>BRITTNEY: I THINK
00:22:47.26\00:22:51.26
ADRA'S AWESOME. I HAVE
ALWAYS KNOWN ABOUT ADRA. I
00:22:51.26\00:22:54.56
HAVE A LOT OF
FAMILY INVOLVED, HAVE DONE
00:22:54.56\00:22:55.46
A LITTLE DOOR-TO-DOOR
CANVASSING KIND OF THING
00:22:55.46\00:22:58.26
FOR FUNDS BUT JUST
SEEING, ACTUALLY IN THE FIELD,
00:22:58.26\00:23:01.03
WHAT ADRA CAN DO AND HOW
THEY'RE SO WELL RECEIVED,
00:23:01.03\00:23:02.03
LIKE NO STRINGS
ATTACHED, JUST PEOPLE SERVING
00:23:02.03\00:23:06.60
PEOPLE. >>TEAGAN: IT'S A
LIFE CHANGING THING. WE'RE
00:23:06.60\00:23:09.53
CHANGING INDIVIDUAL LIVES.
00:23:09.53\00:23:10.20
YOU LOOK IN SOMEONES
EYES AND YOU SEE THAT THEY'VE
00:23:10.20\00:23:12.60
ACTUALLY, IT'S A
NEW THING FOR THEM.
00:23:12.60\00:23:15.60
THEY'VE SEEN NEW PEOPLE.
00:23:16.46\00:23:16.96
THEY'VE UNDERSTOOD
THAT SOMEBODY FROM ANOTHER
00:23:16.96\00:23:18.66
COUNTRY ACTUALLY CARES
FOR THEM. THAT'S BEEN THE
00:23:18.66\00:23:19.66
BIGGEST THINGS THAT
WE'VE SEEN CHANGE IN THEM AND I
00:23:19.66\00:23:21.66
THINK THAT WILL CHANGE
US AT THE SAME TIME. IT WILL
00:23:21.66\00:23:25.90
HELP US TO SEE THAT WE
CAN CHANGE LIVES, EVEN AT
00:23:25.90\00:23:26.90
HOME, OR WHEREVER. WE
JUST NEED TO FIND THE NEED.
00:23:26.90\00:23:32.60
TAKE CARE OF WHAT NEEDS
TO GET DONE. >>TIMOTHY: IT'S
00:23:32.60\00:23:36.46
JUST AN AMAZING
OPPORTUNITY TO EXPAND
00:23:36.46\00:23:37.46
YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF
HOW THINGS ARE IN OTHER
00:23:37.46\00:23:40.83
PLACES. SOME PEOPLE
JUST NEED A LITTLE REALITY
00:23:40.83\00:23:44.16
SHAKE. SO IT WOULD BE
GOOD FOR THEM TO JUMP OUT INTO
00:23:44.16\00:23:45.23
THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE
AND DO A PROJECT LIKE THIS
00:23:45.23\00:23:49.00
SO THAT THEY ACTUALLY
UNDERSTAND PEOPLE OVER
00:23:49.00\00:23:51.40
HERE. >>BRITTNEY:
IT'S VERY REWARDING. I'M SO
00:23:51.40\00:23:52.36
GLAD I'VE COME. AND I
WOULD RECOMMEND ANY OF
00:23:52.36\00:23:54.13
MY FRIENDS TO GO AS WELL.
