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

The Tanna community once lived under a pervasive shadow of fear and indignity, all due to the absence of a single toilet. The burden fell heaviest on their women, who "had to wait till dark to go out, often in fear and discomfort," risking snake bites and the shame of being seen. This critical lack of sanitation also meant girls missed school during their periods, and infections were common throughout the community. However, Lifewater's intervention brought a profound and unprecedented change. "I thank you deeply for constructing these latrines in our village," John shared, his voice resonating with immense gratitude for the tangible gift. The impact of these newly constructed latrines has been truly transformative. "Our lives have improved greatly," John declared. The community now has a clean and safe place to use at any time, providing much-needed privacy and security. Their daughters feel safer and more confident. There is more dignity in their daily lives, and less sickness in their homes. The fear of snake bites while seeking privacy in the bush is now a thing of the past. "May the God of mercy reward you. May you never lack good things in your life, just as you have provided something good and lasting for us," John concluded, extending heartfelt blessings from the bottom of their hearts. Lifewater's commitment has not only provided a vital facility but has also restored dignity, health, and a profound sense of security to the entire Tanna community.
