The Imizamo Yethu fire in Cape Town destroyed hundreds of homes and displaced thousands of individuals. Wildfire-induced dehydration was a concern for both victims of the tragedy as well as first responder firefighters.

Dr. Dolhun provided DripDrop to displaced families and firefighters, beginning a long-term partnership with local healthcare teams in the Kayamandi township. Together with The Pebbles Project and Legacy Centre, DripDrop built a community-based program addressing locally-defined healthcare needs—emphasizing prevention and treatment of infectious diarrhea.
