Hi
This October I went to Swaziland to help the Kaphunga Community School. A PlayPump funded by One water (a roundabout powered water pump - while the kids play, water is pumped from deep underground) has been installed and we built a vegetable farm in the grounds.
1 billion people don't have access to clean water and 4500 kids, die each day from drinking unclean water. Kids at the school used to walk five or six hours a day to get water. The pump means they now go to school and the farm will mean they get healthy food and be able to sell extra to get books and equipment.
Swaziland has the highest HIV / AIDS rate in the world (40%!) and 200,000 kids are orphans or double orphans of the disease.
My flights and accommodation were provided free, so every penny you donate will go to the The One Foundation and fund more PlayPumps, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
My aim is to help fund another community - each pump can provide water for about 2500 people. Have a look at the images and youtube film of my visit attached.
So please sponsor me now! Thanks
