A message from the community

Dear Sir/Madame

Thank you goes to Lifewater company, who drill the well for us. This well makes our lives easier and helps help us to save some money, so we can use it to feeds our children.

Thanks again and praying lots of blessings for you all.

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

There are around 600 people near this well and about 400 will access it daily for their drinking water. It's a long walk to another well and we do that twice daily. We buy bagged water for our children when we can afford it, but they still get sick often. This well will really help.
