A Year Later: Ready Access to Water!


Adama Kamara recalled what life was like in the Korobana Community before her community's well was rehabilitated last year.

"I faced a lot of constraints to fetch water before the completion of this project. As a farmer, I used to go to the swamp to fetch water. This would delay my farming activities because the water source is far away from the community," said 42-year-old farmer Adama.

Collecting water is now much faster and simpler for Adama and the other community members in Korobana.

"With the completion of this project, it is easy for me to fetch water because the water source is not far from my house, and this has impacted my life by providing sufficient water for me and there is sufficient time for my farming activities," said Adama.

Having ready access to water from the well has made a difference for Adama, allowing her all the water and time she needs to grow her farm.

"I will be able to achieve a goal of getting enough water for drinking purposes. I have [also] enough time to do my farming activities. This will help me to farm a huge plot of land in a day, as I do not need to go out of the community to fetch water," concluded Adama.
