Solar Saves The Day

Water Pump Future
Water Pump Future

Hello to our amazing supportive family around the world!

 

As you might remember from a previous report that 29 primary schools that has 9,000 children registered was provided a borehole by UK Aid around 14 years ago, these boreholes are old and manual and have costed rather a lot of donated funds to keep active. 

However the worst part is the effort to get just a small amount of water out of them, often 3-4 children per class go to the borehole and pump for around 25 minutes to get just over 3 litres of water for the class food. We didn't initially see any way around this until the recent solar tests and with a new solar panel, invertor and switch we have been able to use solar power to active the borehole and draw water from the ground at  1 of the 28 schools. 

It is possible but sadly it costs $3,213 per borehole so this is now our next active target! Let's fundraise toogether and get more water available to the school, children and community with offgrid power. 

Thank you for supporting us
