It was a very happy day in the village of Chiweku as we installed a pump there for the first time. The pump installation was completed well without any problems, and many people were present to witness it. Water has been a major problem in the village, and people had been walking long distances to collect water from open wells. They thank Wells for Zoë for helping them to access good, safe water.

People in the village are very poor and depend on farming for their livelihoods. Soya beans and maize are the main crops grown in the village.
