Liliana

My name is Liliana. I am 39 years old, and ai am a preschool teacher in the Durand Native Community. I am responsible for 32 children, ages 3 to 5, and I am dedicated to improving their overall well-being.

In the community, I am known as Teacher Lili. My biggest motvation for joining the Safe Drinking Water Project is my form belief that health and environmental education are fundamental to the development of the children and their families.

I strongly believe in an education that goes beyond the classroom walls to build, together, a healthier and more conscious environment.

I’m Lusmila Flores, 36 years old, and I am in charge of the Medical Post in the Native Community of Durand.

It is around 13 years since I provide healthcare services to more than 600 people living in the community and in two nearby villages.

Here, everyone knows me as “Mila,” and I've decided to support the project as a community agent because we need access to safe water to reduce acute diarrheal diseases, especially in early childhood.

I hope you can help!
