For thousands of years, the people of Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia have considered the
Nile River a life line. Even today, the Nile River plays a critical role in the everyday
life of these three diverse cultures. As a “Nile Giver,” your financial support will
also play a critical role Southern Sudan’s livelihood. Your gift will impact the health,
economy and environment for as many as 667 Sudanese people. Your gift will provide
a combined 4,356 liters of clean drinking water a day. The availability of clean
drinking water prevents individuals from consuming surface water that is contaminated
with life-threatening illness such as cholera, stomach worms and dysentery. This has a
considerable impact on their health, leading to productivity and well-being. Your support
will also save these individuals a combined 476 man hours every day. Because of
South Sudan reliance on Substance Agriculture, this time can be invested in farming
and infrastructure. Finally, your gift will have an environmental impact by preventing
people from cutting down trees to use as fire wood to boil water for purification. Your
gift, in combination with Aqua-Africa’s dedication to provide civic education and foster
democratic ideals, will transform South Sudan’s desperate situation into an inspirational
reality.
