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

The community of Kubono Shop Quarter#3 is situated on the outskirts of the city of Brewerville. This community has a lot of poverty, they make a living by small scale farming, unskilled labour work and petty trades. There is very few schools, churches and clinics, and the population consists of mostly women and children. The people in this community had to get water where they could find water, and the main source has been from hand dug wells, as a result many have died from drinking unsafe water.

On March 2, 2020 a Health & Hygiene workshop was conducted for the community having 40 participants. At the end of the workshop many shared how delighted they were to have attended and felt a strong sense of relief. 

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!
