Rainwater Catchment System

After witnessing first hand the horrific pollution left behind by the oil industry and total disregard for the indigenous peoples health I knew I had to do something.

On my last visit I decided to build some basic rainwater catchment systems as this seems the priority. 

Over 30,000 people have been affected in Northern Ecuador and they have not a drop of clean drinking water. They have no choice but to bathe and consume highly toxic water which is mixed with petroleum, heavy metals and radioactive substances.

As they have always collected water from either the river or their wells collecting rainwater is a new idea to them. 

The groundwater has become so polluted that I see no other immediate solution but to build rainwater systems for the families most affected. 

Unfortunately due to the gas flares the rain in many places is also too toxic to consume.

If you would like the opportunity to help, the cost of a rainwater catchment system per family is £30.

To offer a family clean drinking water please contact me at

Together we can make a real and lasting difference
