A message from the community

Dear Sir/Madame,

We are very happy to have a well in are community for we have suffered a lot for water for many many years. Our village is quite poor and there are now nearly 2000 people living here.  The nearest well is over 1 km away.  It is hardest on the women and children who have to go so far to fetch the water.  Everyone is really happy for this new well.  

Thank you very much Lifewater and all the suppoters.

May God continue bless you
