The Clean Water Project
Providing families in Guatemala with access to safe, clean drinking water – a vital solution for communities suffering from water-borne illnesses. Our distributions of the Village VF100 filter will provide up to eight years of safe, bacteria-free drinking water – transforming lives by improving health, reducing illness, and enabling people to live more productive, fulfilling lives. When clean water flows, communities thrive.
Help Families Thrive – One Filter, Eight Years, Endless Impact!
The VF100 Village Filter. A user-friendly, high-performance water filtration system designed to deliver clean, safe drinking water from a wide range of sources. It easily attaches to any standard plastic bucket or most faucets, providing fresh clean water in just minutes. Built for durability and easy maintenance, the VF100 is designed to last for many years with proper care.
Empowerment of Local Leadership. We are dedicated to empowering local Guatemalan women by training them in the operation, maintenance, and distribution of water filters. These women gain the knowledge and confidence to not only care for the filters but also to answer questions and support their communities effectively.
Artisan Handwoven Creations. In exchange for each water filter, recipients are asked to provide a piece of textile or handwoven material. These materials are then crafted into products that are sold to fund additional water filters. The women who create these products are paid a fair and dignified wage. We explain to each recipient that this model is designed to empower their community and create a sustainable cycle of giving-where every filter helps pay it forward.
