Hello Supporters!
Sorry our update this time is a little late and that is because we have all been out and about in the field installing new water filtration systems to homes and school in rural communities. This has been so exciting for us and it was all made possible through your donations, every penny really does count!
We have now used all the funds donated but hundreds of people now have filtered and safe drinking water because of you so thank you!
Our work is so critical in Peru as out of the 32 million people in peru it is estimated that at leasr 16 million people, if not more, still lack access to clean reliable water. This is over 48% of the population so the issue is huge and we have a long way to go but we are not intimidated by this number because every donation and every filter system we install goes a long way to making this stat decrease. It's going to take time but together we can do it and that is why tomorrow (Wednesday 12th July) is so important to us, GlobalGiving will be matching every donation over $100 while funds last. This means every new donation tomorrow will be increased allowing us to do more.
With this in mind we kindly appeal to you tomorrow to share our project on social media and with your wider network as together we can raise more funds. Please save the date and help us drive donations to our project on this special day tomorrow.
Thank you,
Rich
