With Chardavin and Family/Community having to walk long distances each day, to get muddy water from a fast-drying water-hole, it feels absolutely imperative to find a way to provide clean, safe water for all, as soon as possible.
I'm highly impressed with the specification and reviews of the LifeStraw 'Community' water purifier and believe this would be a life-changing acquisition for the village.
This particular high-capacity, long-lasting water purifier is designed specifically for emergency preparedness, response, and humanitarian work.
Features include:
-
Advanced purification technology removes viruses, bacteria parasites and microplastics
-
High capacity: holds 13 gallons (50 liters) at once, ultra-durable for harsh conditions
-
Lifetime of 26,000 gallons, enough for 100 people for 3-5 years
-
Rigorous independent testing with WHO, US EPA, NSF and ASTM protocols
Full descriptions and specifications are available direct from the LifeStraw webpage as well as these other resources:

LIFESTRAW 'COMMUNITY' WATER PURIFIER = US$375 / NZ$625
As of June 2020 I am delighted that with great support from Collins Epereje at Lifestraw in Nairobi and direct coordination with John Lotiira in Baragoi, this filter was delivered, installed and is continuing to give clean and safe water to ALL in the Community!
