Habibo Adan Mohamud lives in qoracbilash with her family. Her main source of livelihood is keeping livestock. Her grandsons live with her in their extended family house. She operates the berket that was constructed in the village. They used to store water in excavated and laid plastic sheets for drinking and selling to the other members of the village. They could not drink water during the day from the sheets because it used to be hot like boiled water.
Halima can now access clean water from the berket , which is well protected from dirt, animals, children, and the heat of the sun. They can finally quench their thirst with cold water from the berket on a sunny day and have cold showers at the same time.
Halima buys water from the tankers who supply water from the shallow wells. One tank is sold to her Kshs 1500/1200. She then sells the water to the people of the village at Kshs 5 per 20ltr Jerrycan. People from the neighboring village come to buy water from the berkad. Halima has already planted some lemon trees near the berkad so that the spilled water will be used to water the lemon trees.
