A message from the community

There has been no better moment than when Lifewater drilled the well for us. It has been six months since we had rain. Most of the open wells are dry. We have been suffering a lot, with all the problems we already had, but we are not discouraged because we serve a great God and we always have hope that He will sending us a solution. Lifewater, you don’t know how many people you are helping in Haiti with the work you do. We really love you and we pray that God to continues blessing you. -- David Felix, Well Caretaker (trained and equipped by Lifewater)


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

We have great problems. Before this well we got water from another well but that well is almost always full of people. To get water we need to be at the well at 3AM and now with all the security problem we cant go early for it is too dangerous so we have to buy water sometimes spending as much as 2500 goudes a week. About 2000 people will use this well
