A message from the community

I write to show my profound appreciation to Lifewater for the water well that was drilled for us. My people are happy over the well given to us. God will pay you for this humanitarian service rendered. -- Alhaji Mohammed Mamma, Village Head

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

Faced with difficulty in accessing clean water, Hadiza asked her children to help dig a well. But the water in the hand dug well was never enough for her household as the well dries up in the dry season. Hadiza and her household have no option but to get water from the river which often times leave them sick. With the newly drilled Lifewater well in Dnapu Community Center, clean and portable water is now so easily accessed.
