Every day I walk into my kitchen, turn on my tap, and drink crystal clear water that's safe. Meanwhile there are over 1,600 people in India who die EACH DAY due to waterborne illness, many of which are under five years old. That's too sad to bear. I decided to do something about it. My goal is to ride 30 miles on my bike, if you donate $.50 per mile ($15) that would pay for half of a water filter. 100% of the money donated to G.F.A goes to India. But please don't feel limited, you can give much more money if you feel led. Help me share God's love and save people's lives.

About BioSand
Water Filters

Disease-ridden water is a leading cause of sickness and death in developing nations, especially among children. However, BioSand water filters can greatly address this problem.

  • BioSand Water filters are made from concrete and sand, meaning they're easy to construct.
  • They work on any kind of water—whether from wells, ponds, rivers or rain. This means families can use the closest water source and make it safe to drink.
  • BioSand Water filters are effective at removing dirt, worms, bacteria, and most viruses from water sources.

Your donation will support GFA World's BioSand Water filter distribution. For every $30 GFA can produce a single filter that will be given to a family in need. A single filter can often serve the needs of multiple families.
