In 2019 Zambia experienced the worst drought for 30 years, rivers and streams were completely dry, crops perished, hunger was widespread and livestock died. In some areas people were walking 26km daily to draw water from the nearest borehole. <strong>The Butterfly Tree<\/strong> has installed over 40 boreholes in schools, health centres, and for communities. The boreholes provide safe clean water, reducing diarrhoeal disease cases and the hours women and children must walk to draw water. In addition, boreholes and water reticulation systems provide water for vegetable gardens and food production units during the dry season from April to November.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018The solar powered water supply system provides flowing water to our school at all times. Readily available water makes the food production unit viable, hence the production of vegetables and fruits for a sustainable school feeding programme.\u2019\u00a0 lloyd Kasela &#8211; Deputy Head Teacher, Singwamba School.<\/p>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Please use either of these links if you would like to make a donation, 100% will go directly to the cause:<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><a class=\"oajrlxb2 g5ia77u1 qu0x051f esr5mh6w e9989ue4 r7d6kgcz rq0escxv nhd2j8a9 nc684nl6 p7hjln8o kvgmc6g5 cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x jb3vyjys rz4wbd8a qt6c0cv9 a8nywdso i1ao9s8h esuyzwwr f1sip0of lzcic4wl py34i1dx gpro0wi8\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/gb\/fundraiser\/charity\/20638?fbclid=IwAR1XQ9KiZ8Wjlf1VLvSg6ngooJsAGNF9SHMXLF5BHw70oQC8ODoSfeN0LcU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/gb\/fundraiser\/charity\/20638<\/a><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><a class=\"oajrlxb2 g5ia77u1 qu0x051f esr5mh6w e9989ue4 r7d6kgcz rq0escxv nhd2j8a9 nc684nl6 p7hjln8o kvgmc6g5 cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x jb3vyjys rz4wbd8a qt6c0cv9 a8nywdso i1ao9s8h esuyzwwr f1sip0of lzcic4wl py34i1dx gpro0wi8\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"link\" href=\"https:\/\/donate.kindlink.com\/the-butterfly-tree\/1598?fbclid=IwAR3Hu-AYEITGVhkQTlhIl4PzW0rpLAjZxO--OkYQsiaUWS2Z4cRnSLkeIFs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/donate.kindlink.com\/the-butterfly-tree\/1598<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BOREHOLES AND WATER RETICULTATION SYTEMS According to the World Health Organization access to safe drinking-water is a basic human right, and yet a third of Zambia\u2019s population do not have safe drinking water.
