Sponsor A Water Supply

There are far too many people in rural communities throughout the developing world who do not have access to a safe water supply for their domestic purposes.  Community members are forced to collect water from open, unsafe and contaminated water sources which can be seasonal ponds, open water holes, streams or swamps.  š

As this is often the only drinking water available, water-borne diseases such as typhoid, dysentery, cholera and diarrhea are extremely high.  Not to mention high infant morbidity rates.

Sponsor a School

  • School children should not have to collect water, they should be getting an education.

  • Providing a water supply to a local Primary or Secondary School has a broad community impact. Rural community schools are often the heart of community life and can have anywhere from 250 to 3000 pupils attending.

  • Completion time from start to finish for a village or School water supply can be anywhere from 4 - 6 weeks.

Sponsor a Health Centre

  • Often a Health Centre services many rural villages which can have a total population of over 30,000 people.

  • Often these health centres do not have adequate or any water to carry out basic medical services. (Imagine a women in labour having to bring her own water over many kilometres on foot to give birth). These and many more are often the challenges.

  • Completion time from start to finish is usually 6-8 weeks to supply an entire Health Centre with safe water.
