Ryan’s story touched me deeply because it began with something so simple — a question from a 6-year-old boy who wanted to help. While most children might have forgotten what they heard in class, Ryan couldn’t ignore the fact that other kids had to walk for hours just to drink dirty water. His innocent question, “How much does a well cost?” showed how powerful pure compassion can be.

What inspired me most was Ryan’s determination. When he found out a well actually cost $2,000 instead of $70, he didn’t give up. He kept working, kept believing, and shared his story with others. His passion was contagious — people around him started caring too. It reminded me that when we truly believe in something, others will follow.

The moment when the first well was built in Uganda made my heart feel full. Imagining a village celebrating clean water for the first time — and Ryan, just a young boy, standing there to witness it — made me realize how real change doesn’t need fame or fortune. It just needs heart, effort, and the courage to care.

Ryan’s story reminds me that no one is too small to make a difference. He started with nothing but a question and a kind heart, yet ended up changing hundreds of thousands of lives. His journey proves that kindness has no age limit, and even the smallest drop of hope can create a ripple that touches the whole world.
