Dear Sir/Madame, We are very happy to have good water in the community. We have water from the river but we only used it for laundry, because we cannot eat or drink with it. We spent lots of money to buy drinking water, now our problem is resolved. We can drink the water and can even give it to the babies. Thank you very much Lifewater may God be with you at all times. -Narcisse Duverne Community member
