Why is the last chapter set only in 2009? How are Nya and Salva’s stories connected?
How does having clean water change everything for Nya and her people?
Do you expect things to change between the Nuer and Dinka tribes now that they have access to water? Why?

After emigrating to America, Salva Dut founded the non-profit, Water for South Sudan. Next week we will be participating in a water challenge to raise money for this organization. For the entire school week you will participate in a challenge to only drink water (no soda, tea, coffee, or other drinks will be allowed). Over the week, you should save the money you would have spent on these drinks and donate it to Water for South Sudan instead.
To collect even more money, you can ask for sponsors to donate in your name. You will be going home with a pledge sheet and an envelope to collect money on Friday and our water challenge will begin on Monday. All of the money raised will be sent to the organization directly and they will use it to build a well in Africa.
This is an opportunity for everyone of us to make a difference in the lives of people who are less fortunate than we are. No donation is too small. If everyone donates even just a dollar or two it will add up. Every little bit helps.
