RIPPLING WATERS CHARITY

What they do

RIPPLING WATERS CHARITY COORDINATES ITS ACTIVITIES WITH WATER PROFESSIONALS IN THE GEOSYNTHETIC INDUSTRY ACROSS THE WORLD, LEVERAGING LOCAL RESOURCES and COORDINATING THE ENGINEERING and TECHNOLOGY EFFORTS NEEDED to DEVELOP AQUACULTURE PROJECTS. BUT REALLY, ITS SIMPLE.AN AQUAPONIC SYSTEM BEGINS WITH TANKS of FISH. IN KENYA, WHERE THE PROJECT is BEGINNING, WE ARE GROWING TILAPIA, WHICH SERVE AS A FOOD SOURCE for THE CHILDREN AT THE ORPHANAGE WHERE WE ARE BUILDING THE SYSTEM. THE FISH ARE ONE SOURCE of FOOD, BUT THE WATER FROM THE TANKS is FILTERED and USED to GROW HERBS, VEGETABLES and OTHER PLANTS IN THE AQUAPONIC GARDEN. THE WASTE FROM THE FISH SERVES AS FERTILIZER for THE PLANTS. WITH ONE SIMPLE SYSTEM, THE CHILDREN NOW HAVE VIABLE SOURCES of NUTRIENTS and PROTEINS IN AN EASY-TO-MAINTAIN SYSTEM.IN ADDITION to FOOD, THE AQUAPONIC SYSTEM PROVIDES A TRADE OPPORTUNITY. THE SYSTEM WILL SERVE AS A TRADE SCHOOL for OLDER STUDENTS to LEARN THE INS and OUTS of BUILDING and MAINTAINING AN AQUA
