On behalf of the entire people of Roguwa Angwan Sarki, we wish to express our heartfelt appreciation for coming to our assistance as the dry season approached. Water has been our major concern until God sent your organization to help us. 

We pray that almighty God will bless your organization and team.

Yours faithfully,

Zanko Haruna, Community Leader

Roguwa is a village in central Nigeria. It is a suburb of Abuja, the capital city. Residents have been dependant for their water on open hand-dug wells, rainwater, and vendors. None of these sources is safe and all are inadequate for the growing population in Roguwa.

Affording the cost of buying water is a problem for many families in Roguwa. Added to that is the financial burden of health care brought by the rising wave of waterborne diseases from the water. This is a painful reality for a community where most people live on less than $1 a day.

Generous donors enabled Lifewater Canada to drill a well in Roguwa that is providing safe water to everyone, and eliminating the need for people to rely on dirty, expensive alternatives.
