Mphalure Village, Rumphi District, Malawi
Kindly Donated by One Retail Through Purchases of Life Water
“The pump installation was carried out successfully and the villagers are delighted to have access to safe and clean water for the first time. Previously, they relied on open wells for drinking water, which led to frequent outbreaks of waterborne diseases such as cholera and diarrhoea. They are now relieved that such suffering will be a thing of the past. The community is poor and depends on small-scale farming for daily survival. The roads leading to the village are in poor condition, making travel difficult, and the area lacks meaningful development.”

This project was undertaken as part of our campaign of projects that actively reduce carbon emissions. This project helped the community save their much needed wood which was previously being burnt daily to boil water. This project has also eliminated the many thousands of hours previously spent on walking to collect water.
