A message from the community

I humbly write to express my gratitude on behalf of Sabon Gari community, to show our thanks to Lifewater Nigeria in Gwagwalada, FCT-Abuja. We really show our appreciation to everyone to have come to fix our damaged borehole. We promise to maintain it and make use of the water judiciously. May Almighty God pay you back abundantly. Yours faithfully, Gideon Danladi 08063626497

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

Nestled within the Keffi Local Government Area of Nasarawa State, the community of Sabon Gari in Anwan Jaba faced a severe water shortage due to their reliance on a single damaged borehole. This lack of a reliable clean water source created significant hardship, and their pleas for help had gone unanswered until Lifewater's arrival. As Gideon Danasibi, a resident of Sabon Gari, recounts with immense relief and gratitude: "My name is Gideon Danasibi from Sabon Gari. I appreciate the coming of Lifewater to Sabon Gari Community. We have been facing severe lack of water because we only have one source of clean and safe water which is the borehole that got damaged. We have been going in search of help from other sources but none came to our aid but only Lifewater which gladdens our hearts so much. Thank you for the repair of our borehole, thank you for coming to restore back access to clean safe drinking water once again. God bless the management of Lifewater for their generosity and kind efforts towards humanity at large." The prolonged lack of a functional borehole had left the community of Sabon Gari in a dire situation, with no alternative sources of clean and safe water. Their repeated attempts to find assistance had been unsuccessful, leading to increased hardship and a loss of hope. However, Lifewater's arrival and the subsequent repair of the borehole brought immense joy and relief to the community. By restoring their access to clean and safe drinking water, Lifewater addressed a fundamental need and brought an end to their suffering. Gideon Danasibi's heartfelt gratitude reflects the profound impact of Lifewater's generosity and their commitment to helping those in need, bringing joy and laughter back to the faces of the Sabon Gari community.
