Testimonial

Dear Sir/Madame:

The school students, teachers and caretaker would like to take this opportunity to extend our deepest thanksgiving for Lifewater Kenya attending to our need to come repair our well. The entire community has access to this water point and we all are very grateful for your assistance in maintaning it.

I spoke to you when you were here, but I reinterate in this letter that our school has a need for a washroom. We humbly request your consideration in this matter.

Thank you again for bringing the safe water we need back to us.

May God bless you all richly

S Barafin

Principal
