A message from the community

On behalf of the church and community at large, we would like to express our sincere utmost appreciation to STADA Organization for accepting to drill a borehole water in our church that will ensure the continuous supply of fresh water to the church and the community at large. Your organization has indeed made a pivotal role in the livelihood of church members and the community in the supply of clean drinking water. We are grateful and may God grant STADA more favours to help others in need. Thank you. Yours faithfully, Kennedy Agutu


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

Thanks to our donors, everyone in Seventh Day Adventist Church Withur 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 Seventh Day Adventist Church Withur community and installed a new hand pump. The grateful villagers are happily drinking from the village well.
