Support LIV Village’s “Living Off The Grid” Campaign

Dear Freshbrook Church Family,

We are reaching out to share an urgent need from our mission partner, LIV Village, and ask for your support.

Living Off The Grid

LIV Durban in South Africa is facing severe power and water shortages, disrupting daily life and essential services. To address this, they aim to raise R7 million (£300,000) to install solar panels and a water filtration system.

Why It Matters

  • Education: Frequent outages disrupt online schooling and exams.
  • Healthcare: Spoiling food and medicine increases costs and hampers care.
  • Security: The village’s electric fence often goes offline.

Sustainable Vision

Installing solar panels and utilizing borehole water will:

  • End Disruptions: Ensure reliable power and water supply.
  • Save Resources: Save R3.4 million (£146,000) annually.
  • Protect the Environment: Prevent 6,440 tonnes of CO2 emissions over 20 years.

How You Can Help

  • Donate: Every contribution counts. Give Now
  • Share: Spread the word to friends, family, and social media.
  • Pray: Pray for successful fundraising and implementation.

Campaign Details

  • Goal: R7 million (£300,000)
  • Deadline: 31st August 2024
