more than we support ourselves, then again, it's a good thing to see
somebody helping.

alongside two other Malawian women, walking on a dirt road.
In another picture posted on her Instagram page, she was seen doing the dishes in a Malawian village.
Describing her experience, Gates said on her Facebook page, “During
my stay in Malawi, I joined the women collecting drinking water. I
carried 20 litres and it was tough. Meanwhile, Chrissy (middle) is
carrying about 40 litres. Many women do this every day.”
