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

Lawina was in desperate need of a well, this highly populated area was unable to wash daily and had no safe drinking water. The people would take the whole day just to look for water, and most often shared the same water hole as the animals did. Many health problems developed as a result of this situation e.g. typhoid, diarrhea, and skin diseases. The provision of this well will change their lives dramatically.
