Clean Water Is For More Than Just Drinking

Many water-borne illnesses are a result of poor hygiene and sanitation, so we promote water safety by equipping world communities with hand washing stations. We deploy two main types: (1) portable stands and (2) permanent systems. Portablestands consist of a 30L refillable plastic barrel with a tap on a metal stand. The larger, permanent systems resemble miniature (2000L tank) rainwater collection systems connected to the roof a latrine facility. IMPACT: Hand washing for 50-250 people (portable stand) or 100-500 people (permanent system) LIFESPAN: 20+ years
