A message from the community

Dear Lifewater & Sponsor,

On behalf of the students and teachers of the school, we thank you for the well. We did not have the money to put a well at the school, so we suffered a lot until God sent you to us. Thank you very much, and only God can pay you back for what you have done for us.

Thanks again,

John Renelus, School Director

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

Water Hardness: 40

The students at this school will now be able to concentrate on their studies, rather than having the daily task of walking to other locations to obtain water. This new well will serve 700 students, teachers and surrounding neighbours with fresh clean water.
