A message from the community

We in Nyangade wish to express our sincere gratitude to Lifewater for the provision of a clean and safe water source for our community. We never had a well nearby so clean water was always a distant dream. We are grateful for this beautiful reality. -- Community Leaders

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

Because they had no nearby well, about 800 children and adults living in Nyangade in Kisumu County always had to gather water from a swamp. This source was very contaminated, and resulted in many residents becoming sick. But sadly, there was no other option. But recently, generous Lifewater Canada donors funded the drilling of a well in Nyangade that is providing the community with safe water and improved health.
