Introduction
Rainwater collection is a safe & reliable way to source drinking water. However, without the right collection materials, filtration systems it's not possible currently for communities to collect and use rainwater. Communities without additional resources become vulnerable to limited access to water during the dry season. This project aims to fund the installations of rainwater tanks, filtering systems and create awareness for the local community to access water supplies that are safe to drink.
Report
This project also makes it possible for people to have good basic hygiene practises and reduce illness. As we are harvesting rainwater this project is 100% sustainable and using natural resources. In the last quarter we installed a water tank for a family in one of the local communities who lost their home in a fire and were walking several kilometres each day for water! $1050 Is the amount required for a 5200 litre water storage tank.
