A message from the community

Dear Sir/Madam: We the community members of Block ''B'' Duazhon want to extends our warmest ''Thanks and appreciation to the Lifewater Family. We appreciate the construction of the hand pump which have brought great relief to the people of Block ''B''. Since the construction of this hand pump, there have not been any fetching of water from creeks, drainages within our Community. From this, we have not experience cases of runing stomach, vomating ect. Therefore we once more say thank you so very much for the construction of the hand pump. We pray that God guards and protects you people greatly. Thanks. Your's Truly THE COMMUNITY MEMBERS


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

Many neighbouring communities gathered in Duazohn to attend the Health and Hygiene class where such topics as hand washing and safe river crossing were taught. There was much discussion surrounding the lessons, with promises of brining the information back to their communities and putting it into action. The expanding community of Duazohn (Block B) is located along the Robert's Field Highway close by the late Margibi County Representative Compound.
