Villagers who participated in the pipe laying project gained a stronger sense of community. "At the outset, everyone was opposed," says Dalizomasi Waruru, World Vision's community contact. Two years of vigorous promotion of the project ultimately changed their minds. They came to see the value of pooling their efforts and agreed to contribute their time and labor.
「剛開始時大家很抗拒，」擔任展望會社區聯絡人的達利叟馬希表示，但是經過 2 年的努力推動，村民逐漸瞭解集思廣益、共同參與的重要，也願意奉獻出自己的時間、人力。
