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

People of Sakima community in Johnsonville township had not known a source of clean water until Lifewater brought one to their village. The villagers relied on the contaminated water from creeks to fulfill their water needs. However, Lifewater Canada and Lifewater Liberia partnered to construct a new well in the village, and install a new hand pump. The grateful residents are enjoying clean and safe water from the village well.
