Water & Sanitation

Below are Water Solutions that have been developed and deployed around the world to provide man’s most basic need — safe water to drink and abundant water to grow food:

New Life International is a Christian outreach organization dedicated to providing safe water to the world.  New Life distributes a simple, patented water purifier that uses common table salt and a 12 volt battery to create chlorine to disinfect water.
One purifier can potentially serve an entire village at a cost as low as a penny per day per person.  Over the past 7 years, more than 1,000 water purifiers are in operation in 58 countries around the world.  To learn more about New Life, click here.

KickStart
