We recently installed a PlayPump at Ntsoanatsatsi Edu Care Trust in the Free State The Trust teaches adults to grown vegetables, but also looks after 300 vunerable children.
Ruth Butcher, from Mama’s Allicance, who bought the Trust’s water problems to our attention, has told us that after the PlayPump was installed that “the children cannot get enough of the PlayPump” and what a difference it has made.
We also installed a PlayPump at Louwna Primary School in the North West Province. Their electric pump had been broken for two years and they had to go and collect water and pay for it, which they could ill afford.
Maintenance has also been a major drive this year and in the last couple of months we have maintained over 50 PlayPumps.
Each tank s tand has an SMS number on it for reporting problems with the PlayPumps and schools and communities can phone in.
South Africa is a water scarce country and in rural areas the PlayPump can often been the only source of reliable water.
We rely on donations to help us maintain our PlayPumps. The schools and communities rely on the PlayPumps to help them stay healthy and alive. Please consider a donation to help us help these rural and vunerable children.
