Many villagers cheerfully welcomed us to Jekemu village in the area of Jimu. People were very happy to receive a pump for the first time in the village. Women and elderly people had been walking long distances to collect water from streams, but they are now happy to have their own pump. They had wanted to have a pump in the village for many years but did not know where to seek help. They are very thankful to Wells for Zoë for responding quickly when they asked for assistance with water.

People in the village are poor and lack many basic necessities in their daily lives. There are no good markets where they can sell their crops after harvest, and there are no health facilities in the area, making it difficult for people to access medical help when they become sick.
