A message from the community

Dear Sir/Madame

We want to say thank you very much to Lifewater, who installed our new well.

Water is not supposed to be a problem for people, it is a basic need, but in Haiti if you're not a rich person, you can’t afford it,

With Lifewater, everybody can have access of good water!

Thank you again Lifewater

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

There are around 500 people in this community with around 400 drawing water regularly from this new well. Before the well was drilled we walked around 45 min one way to another pump, and did this around 2x every day. If people can afford it they spend on average 50 goudes every day for bagged water to drink, but even that sometimes isn't safe.
