This page gives our Supporters an update on Adopt A Tank's current projects
Adopt A Tank, Inc. is providing 2,200-gallon tanks at a cost of $3,000 each, completely installed with water filters, faucets, and security. This is enough to serve at least two school-going children with the average 3-gallons-a-day for a year. In collaboration with the local communities, Adopt A Tank intends to locate at least 1,000 of these tanks in Primary Schools (Elementary Schools) within 100 miles of Nairobi, the capital city of Kenya.
Adopt A Tank Inc. is tackling the problem of water availability by ensuring that it is available in the most critical areas: schools. This ensures that:- Children have access to clean, safe drinking water in a central location, i.e. school
- School-going Children can stay in school, indeed, are attracted to learning because of the provision of basic needs (as a substantial number of schools have also implemented school-lunch systems)
- Communities are invested in managing water resources provided by Adopt A Tank Inc. by ensuring the security and maintenance/repair of the tanks if/when needed.
- Support Adopt A Tank Inc. with different kinds of resources: volunteer time, spread the word to friends, adopting a tank – it will actually be named after a person/object of your choosing – and cash does also help.
- Liking us on Facebook and sharing our stories with your friends, colleagues, office, school, college, peers.
