A message from the community

On behalf of the entire community of Kupee Community, I write to extend our heartfelt thanks and sincere appreciation to Life Water Organization for the installation of a water pump in our area. Your generous support has brought immense relief to our people, especially women and children who previously had to walk long distances to fetch water. The availability of clean and safe drinking water has not only improved our health and sanitation but has also given us hope for a better and healthier future. We are deeply grateful for your compassion and commitment to improving lives in underserved community like ours. Once again, thank you for your kindness. We will forever remain grateful. Sincerely yours, Vamba S. Kamara


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

Women in Kupee community would often collect water from a shallow well in the village. The water they took home from the shallow well was used in variety of house chores including drinking and washing. As a result of drinking a shallow well's water, the residents would often suffer from unsafe sources of water. However, Lifewater Canada and Lifewater Liberia drilled a well in Kupee community, and installed a new hand pump, giving the women of Kupee community to carry home clean drinking water, and ultimately, everyone is healthy.
