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

Sundaygar Town Q#1 is located along the Robert International Airport Highway between Sugar Hill Town and Smell No Taste Town within the Margibi County. This community was established by William Sundaygar and named after him who is now deceased.

This town has approximately 750 citizens, mostly young people and children, with farming and charcoal burning as their basic livelihood.

Open hand dug wells have been their only source of water, and these wells are not safe to drink from, leaving the people vulnerable to water borne diseases.

On September 12, 2019 Lifewater Liberia conducted a Health & Hygiene Workshop for this community with 21 participants. With the information they have learned and put into practice, and a new well providing safe clean water, they will have health and hope for a better future.

 

This well was drilled as part of a cooperative NGO initiative to provide safe drinking water to all Liberian's. Thanks to ''The Last Well Inc.'' for their coordination and support!
