A message from the community

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

I am Lady Grace, the headmistress of the Kowayarda primary school. Our school has been having trouble procuring drinking water during school hours. The pupils often have to return home to get water, which is a long walk, and many of them don't return. The school lavatory is also not functional because there isn't enough water to flush the waste after use. I am so grateful to Lifewater for the rehab of the school's borehole. This means that the pupils will no longer have to walk home for water, and the school lavatory will be functional again. The entire student body and faculty are overjoyed and appreciative. Thank you!
