Greetings friends and supporters. Water contamination continues to be a major concern for many people around the world, especially in places like Haiti. Despite the difficult conditions there we continue to do good work in Haiti with the help of our partners in Haiti. Late last year they completed a seminar on how water gets contaminated and then how to treat the water to make it potable. They demonstrated water disinfectant treatment during the seminar.
Together, we are saving lives, by reducing the risk of gastrointestinal diseases that can become fatal for small children without strong immune systems. For normal adults, these diseases can be as mild as a nuisance to feeling sick for a short time, and then usually a full recovery is made. For small children, these diseases in contaminated drinking water can be a severe illness and possibly death.
Thank you for your continued support of Agua Pura Para El Pueblo. We are grateful to be working with you to improve the lives of children in Haiti and throughout Latin America.
