Go Fund Me Fundraiser for Water Purification

Miranda Spindt, a 16-year-old from Genesee, WI, and St. Paul Parish, has been active with the "Connecting Hearts and Hands with Peru" committee since 2014. Miranda is bilingual. In 2014 and 2016, she helped the medical team by being a translator for them. She also became involved with Berkey water purification in 2016 when she trained families on using the water purification system and distributed 50 systems to families in Paita.

Access to clean drinking water is a basic human right and a key component in protecting human life, Pope Francis said. To continue giving aid to our brothers and sisters in Peru, a team from St. Paul Parish, Genesee Depot, will be going to Peru in July, installing 30 Berkey water purification systems, to help families receive clean water. Due to the flooding, water is contaminated with all sorts of pathogens.  Miranda is doing a private fundraiser on gofundme. Please select the link below to donate to her fundraising campaign.

THANK YOU!!
