He drives 70 miles so his mother has water to wash her hands

Navajo Nation resident Timothy Holiday drives miles to haul clean water to his mother so she can drink and wash her hands.

Victoria Badonie’s grandchildren used to shower from a groundwater pipe over a mile from their house before federal stimulus money recently helped them get running water.

They are among the many on the reservation who have limited access to clean water.

This has always been their way of life, but see how the Covid-19 pandemic has magnified the need to fix this inequality.
