Review for Friendly Water for the World, Olympia, WA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Friendly Water for the World does an amazing job bringing jobs, clean water and self-sufficiency to many small communities in Africa and India with local leaders providing the training at a very low cost. They are extremely efficient in what they do as there is only one paid staff member. Everyone else volunteers. They are in 14 different countries and have helped women with AIDS, pygmy groups, albinos, and others who are commonly discriminated against find a means to support themselves while gaining respect in their communities by building biosand water filters and selling water. Once they have the molds, they can keep on producing and selling clean water improving lives in their communities. Its like a gift that keeps on giving yet the beginning costs are minimal. What's more, the bio-sand filters are good for 30 years.
