A message from the community

We, the community of Yarbayai town, wish to thank Lifewater Canada and Lifewater Liberia for blessing us with a well so we have easy access to clean water. Thanks lots. ---Community Leaders


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

People of Yarbayai village were forced to drink and wash from a nearby creek because hey did not have access to clean water, this is because the community did not have a source of clean water. But after our donor intervened, it is no longer the case. Lifewater Canada donors intervened by funding the drilling of a new well in Yarbayai village, and installing a hand pump. So everyone in the village is gratefully enjoying clean and safe drinking and washing water.
