We write to thank Lifewater for drilling a new well for us. May God continue to bless you and give you long life.

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

“My name is Mary Dagana and I am from the Ngawan Community in Akwanga. We have been struggling to get clean water because we don't have water after our well failed. We have to carry heavy water jars on our heads every day since the community stream is so far away, and doing so causes backaches, headaches, and other physical discomfort. The lack of water led to widespread infections. Typhoid and diarrhea have spread throughout the community. We are incredibly grateful for Lifewater's assistance. May God bless you greatly.”
