A message from the community

On behalf of Essan Dowapi community, we appreciate Lifewater Canada/Nigeria for rehabilitating our handpump borehole which had been faulty for three (3) years now. This kind of gesture will not be forgotten. May Almighty God continues to uplift your organization. Yours faithfully, Alhaji Haruna 08034111537


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

My name is Zanabu. Our major challenge here has always been water scarcity, and our children are always at the mercy of waterborne illness. The poor quality of our water puts us at constant risk of various diseases. Our heads always ache. Some days, we go to bed hungry because we lack the necessary water to cook our meals. We are so happy that our borehole has been rehabilitated today. Lifewater has restored our only source of clean water, something we take for granted. Thank you so much for bringing joy and laughter to our faces. God blesses the organization abundantly.
