A message from the community

Dear Sir: For a very long time now, we have had no safe water. Our old handpump has been down and we resort to water in a shallow hole. It is my pleasure to report that this well is now done and completely successful. We appreciate very muhc Lifewater Canada for sponsoring this project, the beneficiaries are extremely happy for the safe drinking water that it now provides. In His Name P David Maina
