On behalf of our community, we wish to take this chance to express our deepest gratitude to Lifewater Canada and Lifewater Liberia for drilling our community a new well and installing a new hand pump. We are so grateful to have access to clean and safe water.

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

Residents of 15_Gate community were unable to access clean drinking water for years. The residents would collect water from shallow hand dug wells because that was all the option they had.

However, Lifewater Canada and Lifewater Liberia drilled a new well for the community and installed a new hand pump. Every man, woman and child in 15_Gate community now has access to clean and safe drinking and washing water.
