Project Report | Feb 17, 2021
Report #7 - Status of Shipments February 2021

By Michael Whetton | Project Leader

Many thanks to donors for the funds already accumulated, which are received from GlobalGiving monthly and transferred within 2 working days to Aquabox. This includes non-targeted donations which are allocated to this project by GlobalGiving.

The crisis in Yemen continues and your donations have been and continue to be much needed.

1. Fourth Aquabox shipment delivered to Yemen and distributed.

Aquabox is proud to have delivered its fourth aid shipment in two years to war torn Yemen.

The 250 Gold Aquaboxes will provide the means to access safe drinking water for 1500 + people together with essential aid items for shelter building, cooking, and eating, hygiene, and education.

The shipment comprised half a container, with the other half being filled with medical supplies (wheelchairs, prosthetic limbs, crutches and medicines) by our partner charity Jubilee Outreach Yorkshire.

The shipment arrived in the port of Aden in the last week of October 2020. The planned distribution has been completed.

 Cost to Aquabox of fourth shipment to Yemen.

   250 gold boxes @ £150 per box   £ 37,500 each box including a family filter.

 

2. Total shipments to Yemen to date.

2020 - 500 Gold Boxes

2020 - 5 Community Filters

2020 - 120 Family Filters

2019 - 270 Gold Boxes

2018 - 60 Gold Boxes (trial shipment)

Each of the 830 Gold Boxes contains a Family Filter.

 

Shipments since March 2020 lockdown:

 June (Bay of Bengal)         10 x Community   5 Aqua 12s

August (Yemen)               250 x Gold Boxes

November (Beirut)               12 x Aqua 12s

November (Nepal)             180 x Gold Boxes

December (Philippines)         4 x Aqua 12s

 

3. Plan for a fifth Aquabox shipment of aid to Yemen.

Aquabox will continue to offer help wherever they can with a fifth shipment to Yemen now in preparation.

Production has been impacted by the lockdown. However in terms of Yemen, Aquabox will soon be packing the 250 Gold boxes for the next joint shipment with Jubilee Outreach Yorkshire - the 5th such shipment.

 Funds are currently being raised to support this further shipment of aid.

Aquabox rely entirely on the donations and fundraising activities of their supporters to purchase filter components and items which are supplied in the aid boxes. Without the generosity of our supporters, they would not be able to continue this work. The production capacity has been increased, with the key limit of production capacity being the amount of donations received.

Please help support a fifth shipment of aid to Yemen. We are most grateful for the donations already received and transferred to Aquabox each month.
