Some community details (provided by our in-country partners)
My name is Gumuna Adamu. Our community lacks access to clean, suitable water. Our women have to travel long distances to fetch water from the stream. The road to the stream is dangerous, putting them at risk of attack. Due to the lack of water, our children attend school looking dirty and unkempt.
We are extremely grateful to Lifewater for providing a solution by drilling a new borehole for us. Our most pressing challenge has been resolved. We highly appreciate the organization's kind gesture and pray that God continues to bless and reward Lifewater abundantly.
