Tamba community is pleased to extend thanks and appreciation to the management and donors of Lifewater Canada for the well drilled in our community. We want to a sure you that the hand pump will be taking care of by the community. ---Community Leaders
Over three hundred people in Tamba community today drink clean water from their new well. But that was not always the case. For years, the villagers relied on shallow wells to meet their water needs, but the shallow wells were contaminated which threatened their health. Thanks to our donors, Lifewater Canada partnered with Lifewater Liberial to drill a new well in the community, and install a new hand pump. Clean and safe water is now flowing in Tamba community.
