They also receive medicine or medical attention when they become sick which in some cases can stop a sickness or disease easily in its early stages &#8211; the diseases that are too often not caught until they have already taken a child\u2019s life.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1010\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1010\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/chrfund.files.wordpress.com\/2013\/01\/well.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1010\" alt=\"The children pumping water from their clean water well!\" src=\"http:\/\/chrfund.files.wordpress.com\/2013\/01\/well.jpg?w=300\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1010\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The children pumping water from their clean water well!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>And finally, these children are provided with clean drinking water, a true miracle in many parts of the world!
