Sounthon’s village sources much of their drinking water from local wells, streams, and collected rainwater. These sources of water are not safe to drink without treatment by boiling.
Sounthon and his group are excited that the filters were available on a payment plan which made it much more affordable. Treating drinking water requires cash and time, which he can now shift to other pursuits.
Sounthon and his village also understand the impact unsafe drinking water has on their family’s budgets. The filter is guaranteed for 4 years; within this 4 years, filter users, like Sounthon’s family, identify a substantial decrease in illness and associated medical costs.
