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

My name is Danlami, and we would like to thank Lifewater Nigeria for bringing us clean water. We have been experiencing a severe scarcity of water in the Salefu community. Our community has no stream, so we primarily use rainwater and locally dug wells, which generally dry during the dry season, making us face severe water scarcity. Thank you for coming to drill a new borehole for us. The women and children are all so happy because of the relief the new borehole will bring to the community. Thank you, and God bless Lifewater.
