Training in Water Harvesting Changes Lives

By Charlotte Allum | Fundraising and Outreach Coordinator

Access to clean water is one of the main concerns
Access to clean water is one of the main concerns

Thank you so much to everyone who has donated to our Water projects so far.

With your help, we are able to provide clean, safe water for our families, their children and animals in Darfur - and train villagers in the best water harvesting techniques.

Don't underestimate the power of your £30.00 / $38.17 donations.

This might not seem like a lot, but for the people of Darfur, it can be the difference between growing a healthy crop and facing food insecurity.

You see, many parts of Darfur have hardly any rainfall throughout the year.

That's where our initiative comes in.

We empower small groups of farmers in each community, teaching them the best agriculture and water-harvesting practices.

This not only allows them to grow crops in arid regions but also ensures a stable and healthy food supply for their families.

But here's the exciting part – these farmers become ambassadors, sharing their newfound expertise with others, creating a ripple effect that multiplies our impact.

This Simple Strategy Can Change Lives!

"When I was told that the simple digging of ditches and the creation of a crescent-shaped bank could prolong the planting period for up to six months, frankly, I was sceptical. I have now seen it for myself!" says Patricia Parker OBE, Founder of Kids for Kids.

That is why at Kids for Kids, we train a group of farmers to use this simple strategy of better water harvesting techniques.

This helps them grow crops with limited water resources and feed their families.

For just £30.00 / $38.17, you can help us extend this training program to more farmers and truly transform lives.
