Some community details (provided by our in-country partners)

On November 24,2016 a Health & Hygiene Workshop was conducted and 37 people attended.

This Town is located along the kakata highway before getting to 15 gate. This town is a large town with more women and children. Mandeh Town is one of the historical towns in Liberia. It was established in the year 1955 by a Liberian pastor called Rev. Joseph B. Mandeh. The people of this town use the creek water for cooking and drinking. There is no hand pump in this town. Their houses are built with mud, mat and palm tashes.  The people of this town earn their living by farming and turning of coal.

This well was drilled as part of a cooperative NGO initiative to provide safe drinking water to all Liberian's. Thanks to ''The Last Well Inc.'' for their coordination and support!
