A message from the community

Brothers in the Lord, On behalf of the entire community of Dumbulwa in Fika, I wish to express my profound gratitude to you for the service you have provided to us. By digging this well, you have solved our need for water in so many ways. You also are helping our friends in Gadaka village. Thank you for this. Our people thank you all for coming and blessing us like this. We promise to take care of this well so it can last a very long time. May God bless you all. Mr. Jaro Kyautu Village Head of Daumbulwa.

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