Targetting to provide 82 families with clean water
By Che Idzenga | Chief Operating Officer
We were pleased to have provided 70 families already with clean drinking water through the donations funding the table top water filters, this will ensure that those families who benefit from this project will not have to deal with water-borne diseases saving not only them with dealing with such diseases but also reducing the effect it has on an already burdened health system in the Philippines.
In the past couple of months we have raised funds which in total covers 13 sets of water filters for our next community which we are targetting to provide all 82 families, although this is still far from our target, we are confident and optimistic that our fundraising efforts in the next couple of months will help us achieve the target.
We are again very thankful to our recurring donors and those who continue to support our efforts in bringing clean drinking water to upland communities in the Philippines.
Stay tuned for more updates and exciting things to come.

Safe Water for 86 families raised to date
By Che Idzenga | Chief Operating Officer
In our previous report, we were pleased to have provided 70 families in Brgy. Altavista in Matalom, Leyte with water filters. This has ensured clean and safe water for their family, especially the kids.
Currently, we have raised funds for another 16 water filters but are looking to raise funding to provide 82 families for the village of Brgy. Cabagna-an, La Castellana here on the island of Negros located near the beautiful Kanla-on volcano.
The community has a very active water association with the majority of women as officers. The water system we installed was completed in 2021 and the community has enjoyed the benefits of the increased volume of water closer to their homes.
We would like to thank our recurring donors for continuously donating to our project and are appealing to all our donors to help share this with your families, friends, and colleagues to touch the hearts of more people so we can ensure clean and safe drinking water for the village of Cabagna-an.
