A message from the community

We the community of Imani Gawu appreciate your organization for coming to our aid by rehabilitating the long-time-damaged well in our community free of charge. We say a very big thank you to you, and may God keep blessing you and every member of your organization.

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

The people of Imani Gawu have suffered since the hand pump on their well broke down five years ago. Everyone was forced to draw water from a stream or open hand-dug wells. Neither of these sources was safe, so people suffered waterborne sicknesses that sent them to the nearest hospital. Thanks to Lifewater Canada donors, we replaced the pump recently and safe water is finally flowing again in Imani Gawu. Children and adults are experiencing much-improved health.
