A message from the community

Dear Sir/Madame,

Years ago we used to got water from the river.  Our town is growing and we have about 1500 adults here.  Early last year Lifewater drilled a well for the commmunity, but so many people people were on it we wrote another letter to Lifewater applying for another.  The problem was acute because people used to fight everyday the lines were so long waiting for water, especially hard for the little ones who were pushed aside or forced to go back to the river.  Now with the second well this problem is solved and we are all very grateful.

Thank you for hearing our pleas and coming to our aid.
