Message from Kelly
Millions in Asia are without clean water:
~3.4 million people die each year from water-related diseases.
~Diarrhea is the second leading cause of death among children under five in the world. Around 1.5 million deaths a year, nearly one in five, are caused by diarrhea, which kills more children than malaria, AIDS, and measles combined.
~Globally, women spend 200 million hours a day collecting water. This is equivalent to building 28 Empire State Buildings each day.
March 22nd is World Water Day. Let's combine my birthday and World Water Day and join together in celebration by giving clean water with BioSand Water Filters.
BioSand Water Filters: Using concrete and sand, these bio water filters remove impurities, providing water for drinking and cooking that is 98 percent pure.
Blessings,
Kelly
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.
