Trailblazer continues its weekly distribution of bio-sand water filters to rural families in Siem Reap Province, Cambodia. We have over 3,000 filters in the field now, providing access to potable water to a hundred thousand individuals. Each filter gives the recipient family, or families, a sufficient supply of safe drinking water every day for up to a decade. Incidents of diarrhea diminish. Children and their parents are healthier. Students can attend school. Adults can work and support their families better. Medical expenses are reduced. Filters are a simply, low tech system that are easy to use and maintain. Thanks to all our supporters for giving these families clean water and hope of a better life, at a price of $60USD per filter.
