Wells in Africa

A six year old kid named Ryan Hrelja, learned that people in Africa didn't have clean water and to get water they had to walk a long ways. They got diseases from the water, since it isn't clean, its dirty. He began to raise money for wells in Africa. He did chores to start getting money. Kids also donated money to help him. Ryan builds wells in lots of countries in Africa. They can clean the water, since they put a filter in the well. They can make clean vegetables and not get diseases. Ryan raised more than one million dollars to bring clean water to over two hundred thousand people in seven different countries and beyond in Africa. Kids can go to school and get education from the clean water that Ryan gave. Ryan changed lots of kids and womens lifes in Africa.

  1. Wow, just think a six year old did that. Think of what we can all raise to help Africa. I think that you used some detail but I think that you could a little more. I think that you also need to mention how old Ryan was when he did all of these things. I think that all the things that he did was very nice. I wonder how he got all of that money. I think that overall you did a fine job.

  2. I think it's amazing that such a young mind could do such a thing. I think you could include how he got all the money because I doubt he got it from a lemonade stand? Where was Ryan from was he from Africa himself so he saw what it was like? Where did he go to get the wells made? Did he have a friend helping him? I think you did a really good job at explaining why he did this . I have to say you could never call this Ryan character spoiled or a no good rat.

  3. Wow, what a great blog. I really liked how you put in all the facts in the book onto the page but I would like it if you put in details and reasons why Ryan did this and where did he find out about the Africans?
