DAA Director John O’Reilly has recently been in Timor Leste to see the installation of two SkyHydrants.

The first unit was for the community of Quelicai with the unit dedicated to the memory of John’s Grandson, Jameson Stewart O’Reilly.

The second unit, donated by the Rotary Club of Phillip Island and San Remo, was for the Don Bosco Orphanage at Venilale.

Thanks To Ayr High School Interact

The Interact Club of Ayr High School, Queensland have been great supporters of Disaster Aid Australia.

In the early stages of our Bhutan 2020 Project they sponsored safe water for Bongo Primary School in Bhutan.

This year the teacher who supports the Interact Club, Nyree Woods, told us the club had raised enough funds to support a further SkyHydrant installation.

As our Chair, Peter Faulkner, was holidaying in the area he was delighted to visit the school and keep them up to date with Disaster Aid Australia’s activities.

Training For Vanuatu

Disaster Aid Australia is currently supporting a project to help the villages of overseas workers from Vanuatu, working in Tasmania.

The project is led by Shellee Newell.

As part of our ‘Safe Water for Every Child’ program we are happy to support other humanitatian aid partners, in addition to the aid we directly supply.

In early August, Obed Seru, from Epule Village, spent a couple of days at our Office/Training Facility learing about how the SkyHydrant works.

Seru has now returned to Vanuatu and will be working on the installation of what we hope will be the first of many.

Barangay Tukanalipao

Recently our Philippine partner Balay Mindanaw installed a SkyHydrant at Barangay Tukanalipao in the Municipality of Mamasapano.

The SkyHydrant was sponsored by Lillian Stone, with additional support from Relief International.

Eight years ago the village became the site of a deadly clash that left 44 police commandos, 18 Moro fighters and five civilians dead.

Kaloy Manlupig of Balay Mindanw said, “It is the most emotional hand over… everyone was shedding tears of joy… everyone including all of us from Balay Mindanaw”

We all hope this improvement to the Barangay contributes to good health, a bright future and lasting peace, especially for the children.
