A message from the community

Dear Sir, We put our voices together to send our thanks to Lifewater for this wonderful gift of safe water. We have suffered long because we have not had a safe water well for all of this village's life. There are many of us now in this town (700 population) and your gift has brought us great joy. Everyone is grateful and really happy not to have to walk 2 km for access of another well for water. We wanted you to know how happy you have made us. Please accept our thanks and know that we pray for you faithfully. Faithfully Magalie Docteur
