A message from the community |
We are so happy to be able to collect water from the village well after your team fixed the broken hand pump. We wish to thank Lifewater Canada for meeting the cost of the repairs on our behalf. ---Community Leaders |
Some community details (provided by our in-country partners) |
Women in Kokonya village were not happy collecting water from a nearby stream but it was either the stream or they go without water. This was during the time when the hand pump on the well serving the village was broken, so no one was able to access clean water from the well. Thankfully, Lifewater Canada funded the repair of the broken hand pump, so everyone in Kokonya has access to clean drinking water, and the women have gladly abandoned the stream as a source of water. |
