We write to say thank you Lifewater Canada and Lifewater Liberia for bringing clean and safe drinking water close to us by drilling us a communal well. We could not have afforded clean water without you. We feel blessed beyond measure, and we pray you are blessed even more. ---Community Leaders
Kaikea community in Liberia’s Montserrado county has a creek running through it. The creek would act as the community’s source of water as it was accessible, and it was the only accessible source of water in the village. The creek’s water is dirty; thus, people would risk their lives whenever they drank from it, but they could not afford a safer option. So, Lifewaater Canada and Lifewater Liberia partnered to drill a new well for the residents of Kaikea community and installed a new hand pump. Because of this generous act by Lifewater Canada donors, the people of Kaikea village are enjoying drinking clean and safe water from the well.
