New Community Land Q#3 is located in Compound # 3 established in 2004. This part of the community was created to accommodate the overgrowing population in Q#2, but it still lacks basic social services like schools, health center and safe drinking water. The people of this community depends on Subsistence farming and petty trade for their livelihood. To date they get water for their home use from their neighbor's open hand dug wells in Q #2. During the dry season these wells go dry leaving them with no access to clean water source but the nearby creeks. During the Workshop, the participants practice the lessons learned from the disease transmission and they are to apply the practice every day to make their lives healthy. Thanks and appreciation was given to the Lifewater Health and Hygiene Team and the Sponsor of this worthy Program.

With God's many Blessing He answer the prayer of this community for safe and clean
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! |
