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

Thanks to our donors, everyone in St James Withur ACK Church community in Kisumu County now has access to clean and safe drinking water. The residents would collect water from a swamp in the village, a dirty source that put their lives at risk of catching disease. While residents were aware of the risks of drinking from the swamp, they could not afford a clean source of water. The dirty swamp was all they got. But then, Lifewater Canada constructed a new well in the St James Withur ACK Church community and installed a new hand pump. The grateful villagers are happily drinking from the village well.
