Some community details (provided by our in-country partners) |
||||||||||||||||||
Tilla had a severe water shortage due to over-population and limited supply sources. A trek to the nearest community river takes about an hour. Because children do much of the water-carrying for their families, many would students arrive late for school and few were able to carry enough to ensure they occasionally had a bath. Therefore, the entire community was extremely grateful after Lifewater Canada, thanks to our donors, rehabilitated two broken down wells including this one. The rehabilitations, and replacement of the hand-powered pumps on both wells, has ensured that safe and easily accessible water is flowing again in Tilla. |
