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

My name is Mallam Dauda from Shidna Village, i wish to appreciate Lifewater for the great help rendered to shidna community, The abandoned borehole in our village had become a source of pains, forcing us to rely on unclean water sources that caused illness and disrupted our daily lives. Our women and children bore the brunt of this challenge, spending hours fetching water and falling sick from drinking it. the contaminated open wells and stream we get water from became a symbol of our hardship. The water was unsafe to drink, causing sickness that left families struggling to survive. When Lifewater rehabilitated our well, they restored more than clean water, they restored our dignity and hope. Today, our children run freely, mothers spend their time in productive ways, and fathers feel proud to see their families thriving. The rehabilitated well is a beacon of health and happiness for us all in shidna Village, and we will forever be grateful to Lifewater for their kindness.
