To fund 23 water wells together we successfully raised $95,000!! Thank you to everyone who supported The Wellness Project! We couldn’t have done it without you.
We absolutely loved partnering with Love Mercy Foundation on our first project together. Our next amazing initiative is right over the horizon – stay tuned for where Platinum Foundation is going next…
Handwashing is the first form of defence against diseases like COVID-19. But what if you don’t even have clean water to drink? The Wellness Project will build and repair 20 water wells in Northern Uganda in the fast-tracked timeframe of three months, to keep the most vulnerable communities safe. Through the Platinum Electricians network, Platinum is proud to partner with L&H and MMEM for The Wellness Project.

This is now providing them with the power to run ultrasound machines, x-ray machines and all necessary medical equipment. It was so lovely to receive this photo recently of midwives, and mum and bub in front of the Solar system.

We are extremely thankful to partner with NECA Victoria and Schneider Electric to supply and install a much needed solar system at Kristina Health Clinic (KHC) in Uganda. KHC is located in Otuke, a rural community in northern Uganda currently in the process of overcoming poverty after decades of civil war. This remote community struggles with poor electricity supply, so installing a solar system will allow mums and bubs to receive the best possible care.
Kristina Health Clinic (KHC) currently delivers an average of one baby per day. The clinic is building a standalone maternity ward facility to cope with the demand. The closest public hospital is 72km away, which unfortunately finds itself with babies in humidity cribs that are not switched on due to lack of power and no backup system. Installing solar power at KHC will allow them to run ultrasound machines, x-ray machines and all necessary medical equipment.
We will be taking a team of 6 young electricians from Victoria, Australia on a 10 day trip to Uganda to fully install the solar system.
What a privilege to use our skills and resources to bless this community.
What an amazing trip seeing the change and development that’s happened in Chikomeni since the last time we visited in 2015. A team of 8 people from Platinum Electricians yet again had the trip of a lifetime and witnessed how vast the impact we are having in this part of the world.
During the month of May, many of our Platinum Electricians offices across Australia held local fundraising events. Including
Thanks to all our customers, suppliers, families and friends who supported us in the fundraising.
In October 2017 a team of 5 from Platinum Electricians visited the community we newly partnered with in Sri Lanka. It was so great to see the potential in years to come of what our support can do.
