iNeedCleanDrinkingWater Project Launched
We are delighted to announce our latest Pakistan Flood Relief project.
Clean drinking water is the most needy and basic requirement of the flood effected population. It is expensive and difficult to distribute lorries of drinking water or install large scale water filtration systems with each of access.
There is plenty of water, but it is full of waterborne disease and completely unhealthy to consume. We are already hearing tragic stories illness and death resulting from waterborne diseases.
iNeedCleanDrinkingWater propose to purchase and distribute free of charge the LifeStraw Family an Instant Microbiological Water Purifier. This key benefits of this purifier are:
- Is a point-of-use water treatment system intended for routine use in low-income settings.
- Filters up to 18,000 litre of water, enough to supply a family of five with microbiologically clean drinking water for three years, thus removing the need for repeat intervention.
- Ensures high flow rate and high volume of purified water.
- Complies with US Environmental Protection Agency 1987 Guide Standard and Protocol for Testing Microbiological Water Purifiers:
- Removes minimum 99.9999% of bacteria (>LOG 6 reduction).
- Removes minimum 99.99% of viruses (>LOG 4 reduction).
- Removes minimum 99.9% of protozoan parasites (>LOG 3 reduction).
- Removes turbidity (how clear the water is).
- Requires no electrical power, batteries or replacement parts.
- Requires no running water or piped-in water supply.
- Has an easy-to-clean pre-filter and purification cartridge.
- All raw materials are US Food and Drug Administration compliant or equivalent.
This product manufactured and distributed by Vestergaard Frandsen.
This family unit is suitable to supply a family of 5 for 3 years at a small cost just under £20.
This is an absolute amazing price to supply clean drinking water for a family.
Single units are also available which are ideal for children and adults at a cost less than £3.
Both are mobile and need no electricity which makes them suitable for use anywhere anytime.
We at PakTrust.org support this project and have setup the iNeedCleanDrinkingWater project with the aim to supply 5000 units.
Please help us by contributing to this very noble and worthwhile cause by donating online now.
