The villagers were overjoyed to see us arrive to install the pump for the first time. The installation process was completed without any difficulties, and a large number of villagers gathered to witness it. The village chief expressed heartfelt gratitude to the organisation for providing good, clean, and safe water free of charge. He further stated that he could now die a happy man, having seen a pump in the village for the first time.

The villagers face many challenges in their daily lives and previously relied on unsafe water from rivers and streams. Farming is their main source of livelihood, and while they are poor, they are also hardworking.
