A message from the community

Dear Lifewater & Sponsor,

We the members of this community, highly appreciate you very much for the safe drinking water you have provided.  We hope that the almighty God will continue to bless you as you have blessed us.

God Bless you in Jesus Name

Morris Mulbah, Town Chief

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

This town is located along the main highway to Bong Mines in the district of Fuamah.  This populated community is mostly women and children. The homes are made with mud, palm leaves and some zinc. The only source of water for this town was a hand-dug well and a seasonal river/creek.

On July 27,17 a Health & Hygiene Workshop was conducted for the people of this community with 27 participants who will help educate others within the community. Some of the training included in the workshop  was how to control foods and their environment, ways to purify water in the absent of a pump, and safe practices in the absent of a latrine.

This well was drilled as part of a cooperative NGO initiative to provide safe drinking water to all Liberian's. Thanks to ''The Last Well Inc.'' for their coordination and support!
