Minaj shared the good news with her fans on Instagram. The video shared by Minaj shows residents of the village using their new water well. Pastor Lydia Sloley, who Minaj reveals is her Pastor, is also thanked in the clip.

This is the kind of thing that makes me feel the most proud. The money I've sent to this village in India for the last couple years [via my Pastor Lydia Sloley], has gotten them a Computer Center, a Tailoring Institute, a Reading Program and 2 WATER WELLS. We complain about the most ridiculous little things when some ppl don't even have clean water. Blessings to India. Our work is far from done. I'll tell you guys more about my charity work in the near future in case you'd like to be a part of it. Love🙏🏽

Minaj dedicated a second Instagram post specifically to the women of the country.

"I'm so proud of our sisters in India," she wrote.

I'm so proud of our sisters in India. God is so good. Their desire was to have water wells & places where they can worship, places where they can learn technology, computers, reading, etc. We're just getting started. These women are us and we are them!
