Community Development: Water Projects

We’re working with our partner, Asian Outreach, to deliver Bio Sand filtration units to 325 of the most vulnerable families who are currently consuming unclean water and experiencing high illness and death rates. Each filter unit will serve households of 5 to 10 people.

These water systems take unclean water, and sift it through several levels of cleaning agents, including a “biologically active” layer of microorganisms which actually consume pathogens. The water travels through all of the layers to become safe for drinking.
