Fair Future is building a 110 cubic meter water reservoir in East Sumba to address severe water shortages. This crucial initiative will store rainwater for almost 300 residents, including 100 children, guaranteeing access to clean water in one of the world’s driest areas.

In one of the driest regions on the planet, Fair Future wants to build a 110 cubic meter rainwater tank to ensure sustainable access to water for around 300 residents.

Diese neue “Bild des Tages” is significant as our team stands with the villagers at the proposed site to construct a 110m³ semi-buried water tank. You can view the plans here. After enduring nine difficult months von Bohrung in Laindatang, which stretched us physically und emotionally, we were confronted with the harsh realities imposed by nature’s constraints in this arid region where water scarcity constantly challenges survival.

Laindatang, a community of nearly 300 people, including 100 children, is located in one of the driest regions on the planet. Despite our considerable efforts over the past two years to build numerous Wasserbehälter und Sanität Ausstattung, these measures have proven insufficient to meet the urgent needs of this highly arid area.

Die drilling efforts failed to produce water due to natural obstacles beyond our control, which is a setback. However, we remain bestimmt und adaptable in the face of challenges. With this upcoming 110m³ reservoir that we plan to build quickly, we now have a robust solution that will allow us to collect rainwater, filter it, and provide essential Zugang zu Wasser to the community.

Once completed, this Reservoir will be an innovative, practical, and life-saving solution for these families, helping them overcome the severe Wasserknappheit here and improve their well-being. We appreciate your support in our Mission to provide vital water zu Laindatang and bring hope where needed most.

Vielen Dank für Ihr Interesse und Hilfe.
