We hereby report the closeout of our Nanofilter Project in Zambia. The event was ceremoniously conducted on 20th May 2021. The guest of honour was the Kalulushi District Councillor - represented by Mr. Zakeyo Kamanga. Other invited and attended guests include the Government Health Officer (Mrs. Clare Chongo), community representatives, and many others who were in the general audience. There was a special entertainment by Ngoma Band from Kitwe. The Nanofilter team also took advantage of the event to exhibit all products. There was an exhibition booth and all staff were in uniform.
We are so grateful for our sponsors for this project: the South African Innovation Support Program (SAIS 2) and Urban–Hedley Family Trust (U.S) represented by Mr. Robert Urban. This is a significant milestone for the implementation of the Thirst for Life Campaign (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHL9OCyHODw). Now we know what it takes to establish Nanofilter water stations in other countries beyond Tanzania.
We did our best to engage media; thus dissemination was very aggressive. Please kindly enjoy some photos and video clips recorded during the event. The closeout event was covered by the Local Radio (Miracle Radio) and social media (Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, and WhatsApp).
THANKS again for your relentless support via the GlobalGiving platform. Please kindly continue to count on us as we scale-up this project from Tanzania, Zambia, and to other African countries. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
