A message from the community

Dear Sir/Madame: Bismilahi Ramari Rahim It's with great pleasure that the whole community of Nyangande wishes to send their unconditional thanks to Lifewater and the GWAKO fraternity for their life saving act shown to us. We dearly wish that you continue the same way to other people who might be trying to endure with the lack of water in several regions across the country. Just to confirm our gratitude we would like to explain how severe the drought affects this community. First, the people are forced to travel for a long distance in search of water which can only be found in streams, meaning un-hygienic water. Thank-you for your help! Second, the lack of water has caused conflicts among people or groups as the boreholes around this place can't serve the entire community. Thank-you once more and so the list to the just concluded suffering. God bless you. In a major boost, the Nyangande Islam, in conjuction with your group, has helped transform the whole village. We wish that you do it in other parts of the region wherer water has become a sacred substance or places that are prone to drought. Once again the Kawino South location wishes to thank you for your unconditional deed to our community. Indeed we give you a thumbs up because you are a winning team. God bless you! Village Leaders
