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

“I am Zanabu Muhammad from Angwan Gidan Lawal. Before your arrival, we had no clean drinking water in our community. The stream was often polluted by cattle feces. We had to drink from it and to carry heavy water containers that gave us headaches and body pain. Thank you for coming to rehabilitate our broken well (including installing a new hand pump). We we won't have to go to the hospital as often, and we won't have to walk long distances for water. God bless your organization. We are so happy."
