Wells

Liberia is a beautiful coastal country in West Africa. In the midst of its rolling plains and majestic wildlife there are 1.4 million people who do not have access to safe, affordable water. That is the population of the metropolitan area of San Antonio, Texas. Imagine an entire major American city with access only to unsafe, disease-infested water. In the US it is unimaginable. Yet, 1.4 million people wake up every day in Liberia without affordable access to safe water. Our goal is to remedy that problem.

In the map below you will find the locations of wells that The Last Well has built with your generous support. We want you to see and be encouraged by what God is doing in Liberia!
