Kanyala Little Stars Water Tank
 Kanyala Little Stars has researched thoroughly and has created a plan to generate clean water from harvesting rainwater and also to generate electricity from the use of solar panels. Clean, potable water is an urgent requirement for the Nursery and Primary School Children, as well as the local community. The electricity will be used or the school as well as for the cooking of the children’s meals each day.
The budget for this initiative is relatively inexpensive and has great implications for a similar system to be introduced to other communities.
