A message from the community

We wish to express our profound gratitude to Lifewater Canada/Nigeria for drilling a well on our church premises for the use of the church and other people close by. It is our prayer that your organization will continue to succeed in serving humanity in Jesus' name. Thanks for the service.

Yusuf Iliya, Secretary, Shada Galadima community church

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

In Shada Galadima community, because there were no local water, women and children would walk long distances to the nearest source. They would carry plastic five-gallon jerry cans that, when full, weigh 40 pounds. Carrying that much for such long distances caused many back and neck injuries, and kept children from school and women from caring for their families.

During our visit, thanks to Lifewater Canada donors, we drilled a well that is providing safe and easily accessible water for everyone.
