A message from the community
Our community in this Godin area of Balan has about 350 people. Before this new pump was installed we were forced to take water from a spring in Charles Godin some 6 miles up in the mountain. It was a long distance and caused us much sickness and weariness. Having a new pump in our village is making a big change for us and one that we very much appreciate. It is with that in mind that we say thank you to our host for providing us this handpump. I paray God to bless and protect you and your famiy everywhere you will be and may the Lord keep you in His hand because you have made this goodthing. Never stop what you are doing. Thanks so mcuh to our supporter, may God bless you all the time. Jean Claudius Villager
