Campaign for Clean Running Water for ALL

Mailaskop is a small village, west of Vleifontein Township in the Makhado Municipal area.More than ten thousand people live in this village. The village is governed by both Traditional Leaders and Civic structure (SANCO). Most pats of it has electricity and there is a tared road passing by in a westerly direction that joins the N1 to and from Polokwane and Makado.

The village used to be supported by an old farm borehole run by a diesel engine. About five years ago, the machine broke several times and some people said the borehole has no water anymore.

Our concern is that at the moment we do not have enough supply of water for the village. most people travel long distance just to fetch water which can only reach few street taps in the village. we have a new borehole in the village with good estimated water capacity, we have a steel reservour and unederground water pipes than has not ever feel the the flow of water.

We believe that the government has the responsibility to provide us with clean running water. The ANC, as the current rulling political organisation has promised free basic services in their 1999 election campaign. for us in the village, water is just in our dream but not in our reach.

As young people in the village, we find it proper to engage in a campaign for CLEAN RUNNING WATER for or village.

We would like to request your support in the struggle for clean water in our community of Mailaskop in Limpopo Province.

We as the Youth of Mailaskop are concerned with unavailability of water in our community, we often buy water from those having boreholes while our Government has a responsibility to provide us with this basic need.
 
We are requesting for your support in this campaign. We would like to see the village with clean running water in 2012.
