Giving a helping hand to farmers

Northam/ Thabazimbi – South African farmers are facing difficult times. The severe drought experienced over the past few years has brought them to their knees as the prolonged weather conditions threaten crops and livestock. Grazing fields lay barren and livestock are starving.

All over South Africa, farmers who are already struggling to keep head above water, watch helplessly as their livestock starve. The Northern Cape is especially affected by the drought. 

Ertjies de Witt devotes himself to helping farmers in need in the Northern Cape through the Water Warriors organisation. This organisation was established to aid farmers with water, fodder, food and financial donations.

This organisation is in desperate need of donations and assistance with transportation, fuel, sealed 5lt water, fodder pet food, non-perishable food, toiletries and cleaning chemicals, monthly sponsorships, funds, advertisement, marketing and awareness material.

“I would like to thank everyone for their ongoing support to make a difference in the lives of these farmers. We are all dependent on farmers in this country. By supporting our farmers, we are securing our food and future,” Ertjies said. For more information, contact Ertjies on 072 0405 111.
