As little as $30 can provide safe drinking water to 100 people for a month.
Urgent help is needed for the people of Juba, South Sudan, to prevent a repeat of the 2007 outbreak of cholera. In the first half of 2007 over 3000 people in the capital of South Sudan fell ill with cholera and 74 people died of the lethal waterborne disease after drinking water from the Nile, the source of 80% of their water.
Since that time, CHF International has been chlorinating water at seven key water pumping sites along the Nile, disinfecting 400-500 water trucks a day – enough safe water for 100,000 people.
CHF International asks you urgently to support this valuable work. $30 is enough to ensure that 100 people have clean water for a month and to help prevent cholera and other water-borne diseases.
South Sudan has recently emerged from 22 years of civil war with the loss of over 2 million lives, with 4 million people displaced and a total collapse of infrastructure. Since the end of the war, CHF has been working to help the territory rebuild a sustainable economy and services. Click here for more information about our work in South Sudan.
