Text excerpts from report by Bengt Gustafsson, Nykvarns Rotary club.<\/em><\/p>

5,000 people, mostly women and children under 5 years can now how access to have, clean and hot water at home for up to 10 years. These very poorest have benefitted from the effort made by several Rotary clubs, led by Nykvarn\u2019s Rotary Club, H\u00f6gan\u00e4s, J\u00f6nk\u00f6ping, Sollentuna, V\u00e4rmd\u00f6, Ume\u00e5 V\u00e4stra, Tumba, Huddinge-Botkyrka, Alings\u00e5s, \u00d6ster\u00e5ker, \u00d6ster\u00e5ker First Breakfast, Falsterbo, District 2370 and Redon in France and Taunton Vale in England since 2012.<\/p>

Ilemera is a small community 80 km south of the city of Bukoba on the west side of Lake Victoria in the northwestern part of Tanzania. A very hilly region with a lack of forest. Residents have a very low standard of living with difficulty in accessing clean water. It is difficult to find wood and expensive to buy coal. Several villages are completely lacking in electricity.

At Ilemera there is a vocational school \u201cThe Carpentry \/ Sewing School ICCO\u201d which is supported by the Swedish NGO \u201cGive it forward\u201d. The boarding school started about 12 years ago. It has 22 students aged 16-18 years who go 2 years to learn to work as a carpenter or seamstress. They provide the students, who come from very poor conditions and where at least one parent is missing, an education that provides the tools for starting their own companies.<\/p>

The school received 1 Solvatten Solar Safe Water System already in 2012 in order for the teachers and cooks to learn how Solvatten works. Very good experiences meant that the interest was great before the start of the Rotary project. The first consignment with 72 Solvatten units was in place in October 2013. During the next 5 years a total of 409 Solvatten units were delivered in Illemera within the framework of the Rotary project.<\/p>
