I would like to extend my thanks and appreciation to you for providing safe drinking water to our community. May almighty God richly bless you in your endeavors.

   -- Sis. Annie Dennis, Community Leader

When the hand-powered pumps on the 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.
