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

A creek in Zinc Camp community in Liberia's Montserrado county was the only source of water known to all villagers. The villagers could not access clean water because the community had no source of clean water. However, Lifewater Canada partnered with Lifewater Liberia to drill a new well in Zinc Camp community and install a new hand pump. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, clean and safe drinking water is now easily accessible to all in Zinc Camp community.
