A message from the community

Dear Sir: It’s our ardent prayer that this commination meets you in good fate. The leadership and residents of the above mentioned community wish to extend to you and you and your institution ( Life Water Liberia Inc. ) our profound gratitude and thoughtful appreciation for a hand pump project done in quarter one of our community for the sole purpose of providing safe drinking water to the many residents. This gesture is a remarkable one as it’s often said “water is life” and also timely as our community (Quarter Two) has been depending on a single public pump which had made fetching water a challenging one. It’s also our prayer that this relationship being built between our community and your institution will go a long way as we look forward to having other quarters in our community to benefit similar project. You can rest assure that we will do everything in our powers as leadership to maintain these pump to serve the purpose intended. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us should there be any reservation or concern surrounding these pumps. Again, with much gratitude we say thanks you so kindly as a community. Your Sincerely Solomon G. Giah, Vai Town/R2 Community Chairman


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

Water from a dirty open well was the only option for the children and adults living in R2 Vai village. Everyone knew the open well water might make them sick with diarrhea and other illnesses, but they had no choice. Then our donors enabled Lifewater to visit R2 Vai village, construct a new well (including a new hand pump) and give the grateful community access to clean and safe water.
