Bring clean water to rural villagers in Cambodia!

Jia Ying is participating in MAD Campaign: Filters for Cambodia
and is fundraising for Water for Cambodia

Help to bring clean water to rural villagers in Cambodia, every dollar counts.

My Story

This August 2018 I will be making a volunteering trip to Cambodia with the MAD Experience (https://www.themadexperience.com/) to install BioSand water filters in rural villages on the outskirts of Siem Reap. 

In Cambodia, access to safe and sustainable drinking water and adequate sanitation and hygiene facilities remains a challenge, particularly for families in rural areas. Polluted ponds and rivers remain the main source of water for cleaning, bathing and drinking, and access to latrines and hand washing facilities in the home and at school are limited.

Although an increasing number of rural households are securing adequate water supplies, ensuring water quality is a challenge. Water contaminated by faeces or polluted as a result of mining and other industrial activities can lead to illness and death among children. A BioSand filter kills 99% of bacteria in clean water. It is simple, low-cost solution that cleans water using a biological process. Each filter cost USD 100 and will provide one family of 7 access to clean water for about 15 years. 

Make a difference today by supporting this fundraising campaign, every dollar counts. For more information on how the donations are used: https://www.themadexperience.com/how-donations-are-used.
