Toontas explained, “The supply is simply not enough, the project is ongoing. If you’ve read the news no one can be blind to the shortage of drinkable water in various areas throughout the country. We, therefore, ask for donations of money or of 5-litre water bottles, sealed for hygienic and logistics purposes.”
No refilled bottles will be taken as there could be a risk of contamination.
“Thank you to those who have already made donations including Jenny Boyd-Davison for mobilising the Southdowns College mums, and Kyalami Food Lovers for discounts provided on bottles purchased from cash contributions,” said Toontas.
If you wish to offer assistance or become involved, Toontas can be contacted on 083 446 0070 or e-mail rtoontas@mweb.co.za.
