Background
During the DAA Conference on the 12th November as important topic was our future aid programs.
Our interest is developing a greater presence in Timor-Leste was helped by presentations of other organisations involved in helping that country.
Following the Conference the DAA board decided that they would extend our ‘Safe Water for Every Child‘ program of ‘Sponsored SkyHydrants’ to Timor-Leste.
We will be working with two new partners; Yooralla Youth Ministeries and WH WASH Consultants as well as continuing to support our existing partner Rotary Projects Timor-Leste East.
Timing
Our plan is for the installation of at least 3 units to June 2023.
For 2023-20224 and beyond we would hope to attract enough support for 10 SkyHydrants every year.
