The Initiative

Scheduled for June 3, 2023, the initiative aims to donate 500,000 liters of water to the affected region. A fleet of bikers from Gauteng, Mpumalanga, and North West will work together to deliver bottled water and water purification tablets (Aqua Tablets) to the community.

The Importance of the Initiative

Cholera is a waterborne disease that continues to pose a significant threat to communities lacking access to clean water and proper sanitation facilities. Hammanskraal is grappling with a deadly outbreak of cholera, and this initiative aims to provide immediate relief to the affected populace by equipping them with essential resources to combat the spread of the disease.

Water purification tablets have the capacity to purify up to 7.2 million liters of water, ensuring a significant impact on the region’s water supply.

The Role of the South African Female Riders Forum and Deputy Minister Tshabalala

The South African Female Riders Forum, a collective of female bikers, has taken on the responsibility of distributing the essential supplies during this challenging time. As an influential figure in the realm of water and sanitation, Deputy Minister Tshabalala’s participation will lend her support and expertise to the cause.

The Event

The event will take place at Jubilee Mall in Hammanskraal, and the media has been invited to cover the initiative. Members of the press will have the opportunity to witness the bikers’ arrival and capture the spirit of unity as they work together to ease the plight of the Hammanskraal community. Interviews with Deputy Minister Tshabalala will also be arranged, offering insights into the government’s efforts to tackle the crisis.

The Impact and Hope for the Future

As the residents of Hammanskraal face a dire situation, the involvement of female bikers and the Deputy Minister of Water and Sanitation is a testament to the power of community-driven action. By combining their efforts, they hope to inspire others to join the cause and help bring an end to the cholera outbreak.

The event is expected to draw a large crowd, showcasing the unity and strength of those determined to fight against the cholera outbreak. With the media’s involvement and the Deputy Minister’s influence, this initiative has the potential to garner widespread attention and support, signaling hope for the residents of Hammanskraal.
