Elephant Pump
6th August 2024 Posted in Council News
We are so thrilled that by using AquAid Water Coolers and their products in our offices and depots it has led to us funding a water pump in the Manicaland Province in the highlands of Zimbabwe.
This Elephant Pump can provide up to 10,000 litres of safe drinking water per day for upwards of 300 people for decades!
The pump was built by an experienced Africa Trust team leader, with the assistance of the local community, using more readily and locally available materials. This allows the community to repair the pump more easily should they need to, which in turn extends the life of the pump.
