Wonderful Water
This Wonderful Water charity gift helps farmers in rural Africa to have access to water all year round, whatever the weather.
Having enough water for both crops and family use can be an issue for African farmers, particularly as weather patterns have become more uncertain due to the climate crisis. Families learn to build and maintain a rainwater catchment tank to capture rainwater runoff, usually from the roof of the house. This means that no matter when the rainy season comes, precious water is always available.

"Thanks to my cow, I was able to save up and acquire more livestock for our farm. The challenge then became the lack of sufficient water for these animals to drink. Fetching water for them daily wasn’t sustainable and so I decided to save up and construct this water harvesting structure. This water harvesting tank stores water that we use to water our gardens and for our animals to drink."
