A message from the community
We Kokoth community highly appreciate you for rehabilitating Kokoth community well. We haven't accessed water for the last ten years. Now, water is back like it never left and we are grateful for that. ---Community Leaders
Some community details (provided by our in-country partners)
Residents of Kokoth had to walk four kilometres back and forth to the nearest pond after the hand pump on their community’s well stopped functioning ten years ago. The daily trip was tiring and time-consuming. It kept women from income-earning opportunities and children from being in school. Worse yet, the water they brought home to their families was contaminated so it put everyone at risk of contracting diarrheal diseases. But thanks to our donors, Lifewater has rehabilitated the well (including a new hand pump) and safe water is flowing again in Kokoth.
