Nysmith HELP THE CHILDREN Sister School Safe Water Program Zimbabwe, Africa NySaves

Problem Children are dying from Cholera in Zimbabwe because the government is unable to provide basic services including sewage, clear water and health care.

Raw sewage infected with Cholera is erupting everywhere and running freely across school yards and villages where children play in bare feet.

Infected sewage running through TC Hardy High School, Ruwa, Zimbabwe

Infected sewage running through Chiremba Primary School, Ruwa, Zimbabwe

Barefoot child crossing infected water and the Cholera is transmitted hand or foot to mouth

In addition, millions have no running water: Well and leaking sewage within 5 ft of each other is a recipe for Cholera!!

Some are lucky enough to have clean water from UNICEF or other charity tanker trucks, but carry it home in infected buckets and become sick.

Desperate people invite certain disease.

Where is Zimbabwe?

Where is the Cholera?

Cholera is caused by infection of the intestine with Cholera bacteria. Cholera is transmitted through ingestion of feces contaminated with the bacterium. In its most severe forms, Cholera is one of the most rapidly fatal illnesses known causing death within only a few hours by exhaustive diarrhea. In others who die, the disease progresses from the first liquid stool to shock in 4 to 12 hours, with death following in 18 hours to several days. Approximately one in 20 infected persons contracts the severe form of the disease.

The body typically can fight off Cholera given fluids and electrolytes HOWEVER, in Zimbabwe, the rehydration fluids themselves are polluted and contain the Cholera bacteria The body never recovers and the infected person quickly dies In Zimbabwe, huge numbers of people have no access to life saving health care or cannot get to/receive this care in time.

Inflation is so bad that a roll of toilet paper costs $1,300,000 Zimbabwe dollars. Many can’t even afford the cost of containers for water

Save 100 families with children attending a sister school in Zimbabwe. By raising $5000 dollars to purchase, deliver and conduct training regarding 100 Berkefeld ceramic filtration systems. –Highly effective against Cholera –Do not require electricity or running water –Situated home by home; no transportation in dirty containers

We have a matching donor giving $20 for every $10 dollars given. So... if 100 parents look AND donate $10, that’s $1000 (from parents) $1000 (from me) +$2000 (from matching donor) $4000 (Much better) But only 80 of 100 families and still no money for shipping (or fewer families saved)
