Working in disaster medicine, I see the devastation and desperation for water, no person should have to experience that. Untapped Shores has provided systems to provide clean water and sanitation to communities after natural disasters: hurricane Matthew (Haiti), Hurricane Irma (USVI, Florida Keys), Hurricane Maria (Puerto Rico), Earthquake in Nepal and Haiti.
The people at Untapped Shores are the most giving and caring people I know. They go into places all around the world (often more off the grid, disease ridden areas) in need of help. Whether it is clean water, sustainabilty through gardening, or just plain love, they give so much of themselves to others. They are working to save lives of the less fortunate and providing the essential thing that most of us take for granted: clean, drinkable water.
Untapped Shores is a combination of compassion, heart, and desire to help improve the health of many who would ordinarily not have clean water.
Untapped Shores is an absolutely amazing company to work for. I feel grateful to have been their videographer for their projects in Uganda, Africa. They went to many schools, communities, and orphanges and touched countless lives along the way with their clean water technology and generous souls. It was touching to see how they interacted with the people and how excited and grateful the Ugandans were when Elizabeth, Patrick, and Courtney arrived to bring them their technology an educate them on how to use the technology. The team was shocked to see how the children are now teaching other children to use their viable piece of technology to save lives within their communities. It appeared that everyone they met they has a positive interaction with and left an impact. I hope to work with this team of compassionate people again in the future. They have an invaluable tool to share with the world and are amazing human beings. Thank you for this eye opening and life changing experience! Keep up your hard work!
This is an amazing organication! How can so many live without clean water, Untapped Shores changes that.
