“A refreshing splash,” was taken in the Oddar Meanchey province of Cambodia where many communities struggle with access to fresh water during the dry season. Numerous nongovernmental organizations work to provide wells, such as the one depicted here. This photo was taken in 2005 by Charmaine Williams, a student at the Michael G. DeGroote School of Medicine, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, and was a top entry among the 84 submissions to a photo contest held in conjunction with the annual McMaster International Women's and Children's Health Network conference in September 2007.
