(Peterborough, ON)A message from the community
Dear Donor:
The situation in Nigeria is critical. Safe water is priceless and hard to come by. Our team has been spending at least an entire week scouring the country to find enough pumps and parts to work for the coming month. This shipment of complete pumps and pump repair parts is a wonderful blessing.
Now we have an extra week to actually accomplish the tasks of fixing broken wells and planting new pumps on the boreholes our drillers are preparing. Thousands of people will have a constant source of safe water because of your generosity.
Thank you from all of our team and the villages receiving this gift.
-- Hosea Apeh, Program Coordinator
