Some community details (provided by our in-country partners) |
|
This community received a well from Lifewater Liberia two years ago. Due to the large population using the pump so often, the seals failed and the rod broke. The community tried to fix it on their own but got the foot valve stuck. The well was down for two months. The Lifewater repair team visited and replaced the spoiled seals with new ones, replaced the rod, and fixed the foot valve. It was a great joy for the people and a relief. The community leader extended many thanks to the Lifewater team for restoring hope.
Repair needed: Replace worn seals and replace broken rods and foot valve |
Every $1 you give provides a child with safe water for a year!
