We support rural communities in drylands to build sand dams, giving lifelong water.
Story
Thank you for visiting our fundraising page for the Manx WaterRelief Expedition to Africa. Ian Hemensley from Douglas is leading a team of people from the Isle of Man to help a disadvantaged community in the semi-arid area of Kenya on September 9th 2005. His team will help them build vital sand dams to provide clean water supplies and will support both environmental and health care education to local schools whilst they are there. Founded by a Manxman, Excellent Development transforms degraded environments in Africa and helps disadvantaged communities to increase their incomes, food security and water supplies. Please support Ian and his team to make a real difference to farmers in Africa. Best Wishes Simon Maddrell Founder Member www.excellentdevelopment.com
PS Manx donors are not able to claim UK Gift Aid on their donation as all Manx charitable donations are gross of tax. You can reclaim tax on anything you give - so give a bit more and let the taxman help us too!
Sand Dams Worldwide supports people living in drylands to build sand dams, and grow enough food to feed and support their families.
Sand dams empower communities, putting the future firmly in their own hands.
They provide a lifelong supply of clean water, transforming thousands of lives.
