The City of Cape Town is on the verge of becoming the first modern city in the world to run out of water. Living in extremely poor conditions, inhabitants of informal settlements like Lavender Hill already have limited access to water in normal times.
Lucinda Evans is a community worker in Lavender Hill, one of the many townships in Cape Town. The current water restrictions mean that all the taps in her communcity are already turned off between 4am and 11pm every day.
With the prospect of all the taps going completely dry in April, Lucinda wants to ensure her community has the needed emergency water stocks for Day Zero. If we can raise some funds for her and her community, she will use a trailer to purchase water in bulk and transport it from the supplier in the Eastern Cape directly to her community in Cape Town.
