Beesayma  Community (Quarter #1) is located on the Monrovia-Buchanan Highway. Because of the civil conflict in Liberia 21 years ago, citizens ran from their towns and villages to seek refuge in the bush. So upon their arrival they began cutting sticks and gathering mud to build shelters to live in, like many African villages.  The name Beesayma in the Bassa language means dubbing houses, that means - "houses built with mud".

Most of the inhabitants remain there up to this day. The only sources of water for this community have been open hand dug wells and water from the shallow swamps, as a result many health issues have affected the people, mostly women and children.  

On August 17, 2018 Lifewater Liberia conducted a Health & Hygiene Workshop for the community with 23 participants. The people learned the importance of basic hygiene practices. With this knowledge the people began to apply what they learned and started cleaning around the community and in their homes.

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!
