January 6, 2006 \u2013 a day that would change Eddie Kroll's life forever. That morning, the master painter, artist and writer and three of his friends narrowly escaped drowning. This dramatic boat accident and the gratitude for his rescue prompted him to build an en drinking water well with appropriate filtration systems in the bitterly poor Kasambara-Gilgil. There, people \u2013 especially women and children \u2013 had to walk up to five hours a day to get to a water point. Previously, the existing well had burst and people fetched their water from the animal trough. Chollera and Thypus spread out. They were able to get treatment at the hospital, where they were also able to get clean water.<\/p>\n

Eddie Kroll had the idea of launching a redemption campaign for Austrian shillings. The name\u00a0 Schiling for Shilling is based on the\u00a0 same name of two currencies. This collection campaign was crowned with great success. For example, a charity event was held at the Linz Casino with well-known artists and athletes such as Toni Polster and Ivica Vastic.<\/p>\n

The cooperation between Rhine Valley Hospital and Shilling for Shilling made it possible for the donated funds to be used in a targeted and efficient manner. Under the leadership of Ruth Sch\u00e4fer, the construction of the fountain went smoothly. Since the inauguration in November 2007, 25 liters per person are dispensed daily in a controlled manner.<\/p>\n
