Water 4 Life Global is a 501c3<\/a> non-profit based in California and currently working on the ground in Guatemala<\/strong>. Our\u00a0clean water initiatives include the distribution of water filter technology, collaboration on biological water treatment plans and contributions towards the reforestation of Lake Atitl\u00e1n.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The greater vision of Water 4 Life Global is nothing less than the availability of clean drinking water that is easily accessible and sustained for many years. Their team envisions a life free of water transmitted diseases, water toxins, malnutrition, and environmental damage, in a country that maintains each of these issues as very viable threats to the communities and ecosystems.<\/span><\/p>\n

To create a lasting impact, we support clean waterways by providing natural lemongrass soaps and sanitizers. This helps to prevent the addition of toxic detergents and soaps into the bodies of water that the villages drink out of.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dropping off a product and walking away is not our style. Proper education about the filter, maintenance, process and purpose is what we focus on. With each delivery, we include an in-depth demonstration and education portion that is spoken in their native dialect<\/span>.<\/p>\n

To reduce the impacts of floods from storms in the highlands, we focus on planting native trees. This will support by blocking or slowing down the flow of runoff, which carries many chemicals, into Lake Atitl\u00e1n.<\/span> Our partnership with WELLKIND aims to promote the regeneration of the environment and plants the seeds for the future in Tzununa, Guatemala.<\/span><\/p>\n

We believe in creating the opportunity for Guatemalan locals to take this project into their own hands. Each filter delivery is run by a member of the community as the “Lead Distributor” which we hire and train as a continuous member of the organization. Everything from transportation, education, facilitation and more is lead by a Guatemalan who is given salary pay.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Without data, there is no way to determine the effectiveness of our project. With each filter distribution, we harness the power of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) through a survey<\/span> platform to gather information before and after the recipient uses the filter. This data is analyzed to provide actionable intelligence and allows us to discover which areas need more support.<\/span><\/p>\n
