Phrae (Punjen Hide-Away Resort)

This is the original statement of our customer: I was introduced to the Raintree-Foundation through a friend when I was talking about I would like to build a hydraulic ram. I have a small resort on a running stream and felt it was such a waste of money to be running an electric water pump. Thomas communicated with me by Internet fully explaining what I would need and the cost. He then came for 3 days to put in the system and made sure everything was working before he left. I have had the ram going for almost 3 months now and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I can fill my tanks and run a sprinkler on my lawn all for nothing. The system is very easy to use and maintain. I would recommend anyone who has a flowing stream nearby to look into this form of water power. It is great!!

Huai Pa, Mae Chaem

Our fist Papa Ram Pump we’ve installed successfully.

Mae Hae

Thai Care and the Raintree-Foundation together installed the first ram pump at Mae Hae. Since the installation around 70 kids from the Mae Hae children's home don't need to walk around 2 kilometers to a water source for showering and to get the required daily drinking water which is purified with a Bio Sand Filter. Now they have water directly accessible at the children's home eliminating the burden of carry water long distances.

After the ram pump was installed the new settled community is able to live their daily life with a steady water supply.
