Some community details (provided by our in-country partners)
About 700 children and adults in Zay Zay Community Curve Q1 did not have access to safe water for a week after the hand-powered pump on their local well stopped working. There were seven anxious days during which everyone had to drink from unsafe sources including a nearby river. People were fearful of contracting waterborne illnesses until Lifewater, through the generosity of our donors, arrived and repaired the hand pump. Safe water is flowing again in Zay Zay Community Curve Q1.
