A message from the community |

Some community details (provided by our in-country partners) |
Kpany Town is located within Margibi County along the Monrovia Kakata Highway. It is a place where many locals could not afford safe drinking water after their pump failed. The lack of safe drinking water presented many challenges. However, thanks to Lifewater, their local hand pump has been repaired and the spread of water bone diseases has been curbed. Lifewater's intervention has also served to decrease the rate of mortality and to improve locals' ability to work due to better health. Children are also having more time in schools while their parents are saving of the purchase of water. |
