We are very much grateful to your organization for being so kind to our community by repairing our hand pump. We will always remain grateful by the grace of God. Thanks very much and may the Grace of God remain with us all in Jesus' name.

  -- David Dwap, Technician Elder

When the hand-powered pumps on the deep and protectively sealed wells in this community in the Marshall area failed recently, residents began gathering water from open hand-dug wells. This water is often contaminated, so the children and adults drinking it risked contracting diarrheal diseases. Those who could afford it would buy bags of water from expensive local vendors.

But thanks to our donors, Lifewater's repair team arrived in Sand Beach recently and repaired the pumps (including this one) so safe water is readily available again to every child and adult. Community leaders offered many thanks to Lifewater for restoring their hope.
