We at Kirkham Grammar School are aware that keeping our children hydrated will aid them to perform at their very best throughout the school day.
As a result, we decided to invest in watercoolers from AquAid. Our unique relationship with AquAid has also given our school the opportunity to help those less fortunate than ourselves. This means that for each machine that we have, we have donated £20 per year per cooler to The Africa Trust.
Through our contributions to The Africa Trust, an ‘Elephant Pump’ will been installed in Africa on our behalf. This pump will bring much needed, clean, fresh drinking water and improve the quality of life of those who will have access to our well.
Our school's name will be displayed proudly on our well and we look forward to adding a photo and a letter of thanks from the villagers to our website in the near future.
To date AquAid have built over 8,000 such Elephant Pumps across parts of Zimbabwe, Malawi and Liberia; and have donated in excess of £13 million to charity.
