A message from the community

I write to appreciate the management and staff of Lifewater for taking their time out of their busy scheduled to come and lecture our students on safe water sanitation, personal hygiene and menstrual hygiene management. This would improve the personal hygiene of our student especially in terms of their menstrual period. Yours faithfully,


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

Pyadna Gujeni is located in the Kagarko Local Government Area of Kaduna State and faced immense hardship due to a lack of safe water. When their hand pump broke down, life became incredibly difficult as they were forced to rely on a distant and unsafe stream. Young girls would trek under the scorching sun to retrieve water from the river. The path itself was treacherous, adding to their burden. As a direct consequence of consuming contaminated water, waterborne diseases became rampant, forcing residents to spend their meager earnings on medical treatments. Basic hygiene suffered, with many people stopping daily bathing, and the community's children frequently missed school due to exhaustion from constant water fetching. Hearing and seeing their urgent need, Lifewater intervened by rehabilitating their broken borehole. Today, safe water has been restored to Pyadna Gujeni, bringing with it improved health and renewed hope. The residents are deeply grateful for this act of kindness, praying for God's blessings upon the generous donors who made this life-changing difference
