The villagers were very happy when we arrived in the village. They had lost hope that the pump would ever be installed because the well had been there for a long time without a pump. Several organisations had promised to provide them with a pump but never returned. The villagers heard about our organisation through our Pump Coordinator.

There are no indigenous trees remaining in the village because of charcoal burning, which has become a business that many people rely on for their income.
