Project Description

Region: Africa

Country: South Africa

Location: Mthatha

Total Budget: $42,060

Area of Focus: Water, sanitation and hygiene


This GG is to supply a rural community with clean drinking and household water. Currently the community shares a river bed source with animals and it often contains faeces and is contaminated. We will sink 2 boreholes, erect water tanks which will also be connected to roofs to catch rainwater. and provide each household with a hippo roller to transport water easier. Currently mainly women and young ladies carry buckets of water on their heads. The training will be related to the boreholes, clean water/hygiene/sanitation and also vegetable gardening. We have raised enough funding locally but need either one international partner for $3 000 or two international partners at $1 500 each with these matched 1:1 with the district.

Note: as of July 1, 2015 there is a 5% additional support fee for cash contributions. This fee does not appear in the financials above because it does not apply if the funds are sent directly to the project account (without going through TRF, and therefore without Paul Harris credit). Clubs sending their cash contribution to TRF must be aware they will have to send an additional 5%.
