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

I am Idris from the Fulani Nomadic Deshi I Seminary in Paiko-Kore. We are grateful for the rehabilitation of our community well. We suffered greatly without access to clean water after our community well stopped working. The nearby stream is so polluted that after drinking from it, we would fall sick and our children would have regular stomach pains. We are so grateful for the well rehabilitation (including installation of a new hand pump). Thank you, Lifewater, and God bless you."
