A message from the community

Dear Lifewater & Sponsors, We the members of Fanti Town (Quarter#2) thank you for providing safe drinking water in a time of facing hardship for water. The community thanks you for what you have done for us. Thank you in the Name of the Almighty God. Sincerely yours, John Toe, Zone Leader


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

Fanti Town (Quarter#2) has a population of 650 people. The fishing industry is strong here including a manufacturer of fishing nets, and there is a local market where you can buy bread. The majority of the people immigrated here from Ghana and married Bassa women and bore their children. On September 21, 2018 the Health & Hygiene conducted a workshop with 25 participants. John Toe the Zone Leader expressed his gratitude to receive the Workshop Team, because he wanted his people to be educated on the basic health and hygiene practices, to learn and to live a healthy life with their children. 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!
