The well at Chakwama village was dug in April 2005.
The money for the well was raised by the children of Finham Primary School was achieved by holding various fund raising events.
During the mission by Ann and Jim Saxton in early 2005 they visited Chakwama village met with the elders and chief, and accompanied by Rev Peter Awaka viewed the place where the well was to be dug. Whilst there they saw the children on their way back from a 2 mile round trip to collect water from the nearest water supply.
It appeared that the whole village came to mark the spot where the well was to be dug.
Before leaving Kaduna state Ann and Jim called in to Chakwama on their way the the Airport and saw the well being dug by hand.
Villagers collecting water from the finished well.
