A message from the community
Dear Sir I take this opportunity on behalf of the entire Mono Hills Girls school and community to express our gratitude to the Lifewater support to this water well to the school. We cannot forget the donation of all the materials to assist us with the construction of this wonderful facility of safe drinking water. We are also thankful for the testing of the water after the entire completion of the exercise to ensure the safety of the water. The school still remains responsible to ensure proper usage of the new well provided. Thank you and may God bless you. Masofi J Harku
