A message from the community

Dear Lifewater & Sponsor,

We are so grateful for this program extending into our community, may God richly bless all of you for reaching out to our community.

Thank you & Best Regards,

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

This populated community is located along the Marshall highway in the lower Margibi County.

This community has a newly established church and school called "Green Pastures Word Outreach International" and some students travel long distances to attend this school.

The only source of water is nearby creeks and swamps, which are not safe for drinking.

The people who attended the Health & Hygiene workshop received information and instruction to pass on to others. With this new well and new information acquired about good health, the people will have a better chance of living a long and healthier life.

It was very apparent that this community had a wide variety of needs, not the least of which was safe water to drink.  The community has a large youth group and since the adults were away busy with making a living by fishing or farming, we spent most of our time sharing and encouraging younger citizens. They said that the drillers were a practical example showing that God really does care. about them! What a blessing it is to be part of this Work!

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!
