Ivan Tito 80yrs Needs Clean Water

Please give a little to do a lot, donate what you can when you can before Christmas and share and promote to help us raise money for Poppa Ivan now 80yrs who desperately needs a permanent supply of water. He needs clean drinking water as it is getting too dangerous at his age for him to live out of hot boiling buckets of water to wash himself. The Main supply of water to his home is continually being cut off for various reasons and leaving him without water for days sometimes weeks. He is that frustrated that he has taken things into his own hands and dragged old pipe by himself to try and link up to create a length of 220 meters to an old broken water pump to get water from his well that is currently contaminated with animal feces and bacteria and has injured himself in the process. If we can just raise some money and come up with a permanent solution it will prevent poppa from getting sick since he is still determined to drink the water in its current state. He is our only Kaumatua who lives in Titoki and needs our help. He has provided countless hours of unpaid service fulfilling his duties as our only Kaumatua and has been deprived of fresh drinking water for days sometimes weeks. He has a serious brain injury and some how still manages to boil water in a pot to wash himself since his shower will not function without running water. He continues to get cut of from the main supply so we need your help to raise money to set up a permanent supply from the well on his property. We will need to remove the surrounding pine from the well and build a cover to protect from further contaminants and purchase a pump that has a 220 meter hose that will lead to a new large tank near his residence. The hose will most likely need to be dug into the ground to prevent it from being stolen like the last one. The water will need to be sterilized and cleaned and a filter will need to be installed to ensure the water is drinkable. We will need a shed to shelter the pump with some big hefty locks since his car, tools, the last hose and other items seem to go walk about from his property ( Have been stolen).

Let us not forget to look after our whanau especially our Kaumatau.
