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

My name is Abubakar Haruna. In my community we had bad water problems. Our kids went to school late and dirty every day. That was because not enough water for baths. I am so thankful Lifewater came to help us. You rehabilitated our borehole. Now we have clean water again. Before we struggled without water. Now our lives will improve. Just as Lifewater came to our rescue, may God also help your organization. Thank you for this gift of water when we needed help. May God bless and reward you. I will never forget you eased our suffering.
