A message from the community

Dear Sir/Madame

As the community together we want to thank you very much Lifewater. We do not find enough words to explain all you done for us with the instillation of this new well!

Life is so hard and to have the blessing of free water now is the best thing, for Water is Life. 

We can only thank you again and again and send our love to you all.

Sincerely

Gerson Georges

Caretaker


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

Our community has about 1000 people living in it and about 500-700 would use this new well for their water needs. Before the well was drilled we walked to a well in the next community also drilled by Lifewater.  But too many people were using it and sometimes, even if we went at 5 am or earlier it would take us 20 minutes waiting before we got some water.
