The Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) has expressed gratitude to Solomon Water for their generous donation of 310 20-liter empty carboys (containers).
The containers were collected from
Solomon Waterโs station at Ngossi in West Honiara on Friday, December 13, and transported to ADRAโs warehouse at the Solomon Islands Mission (SIM) compound in East Honiara.
This donation marked the second time ADRA has received such a donation from Solomon Water. In 2013, ADRA received over 700 plus empty ex-hypochlorite carboys, which supported various field projects.
Before the donation was done, ADRA Director Leyn Elizer Gantare and Comm./MEL Officer Denver Newter were invited and trained by Solomon Water staff in November at SW Mataniko office laboratory on the proper cleaning procedures for the empty ex-hypochlorite carboys.
ADRA Country Director Leyn Elizer Gantare has his appreciation for the donation by Solomon Water.
โI would like to thank Solomon Water for these containers, which will be very helpful to our community in needs of these containers through our projectsโ implementationโโ
โโCurrently, we are working on WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) projects in the Western Province, and these containers will greatly support our effortsโโ
โI am sincerely thanking Solomon Water and their management for these generous supports towards ADRA,โโMr Gantare said.
Meanwhile, Solomon Water has also provided cleaning guidelines to ensure the carboys are properly sanitized before being used in communities and households.
