A message from the community
Dear Sir: Thank you very much to Lifewater for the well you drill for the community. We are very happy to have good water. The well will stop many people from having to go to the hospital from drinking bad water. We were always sick with worms we suffer a lot from the river water. Before we got water from a river, but now because we don’t have rain for several months, the river dried up and we walk almost 2 kilomters to get to a pump that was also drilled by lifewater in a village beside us. Thank you again, words can't express how much of a difference you have made in all our lives. Jinette Michel Well Caretaker
