A Great Day in Paita

A very successful afternoon!

There are now 13 water systems deployed in the Paita community.  10 are serving families near the PRONOEI school which serves 3 and 4 year olds in poor area of the community.  These families were extremely grateful to have the filtration systems in their homes.  They think that it will save significantly on their gas bill for boiling water.  We had a great meeting with the mothers before visiting most of the homes to assure that installation went well.  The gratitude expressed by these families was heartwarming.

Two of the units will serve the two buildings at the  PRONOEI school site.  The parents at this school have been supplying bottled water for the children weekly.

The first unit running was for the Sisters in their residence.  It has gotten great use filling all of our water bottles since being set up.

By the end of the week it appears that all 25 units will be in use.

What a great day.
