Ba is 60 years old and normally drinks water from the well. This process is time consuming for Ba as she has to treat the water before it’s fit for consumption, which is done by boiling and cooling the water.

She now has a water filter that saves her time. Thank you so much Cliff for making water more accessible for Ba. She very much is appreciative of your donation!

Dear Michael,

Mrs Khammoune is 56 years old and has 3 children. They live in Tarngam Village in Southern Laos.

She is the daughter of a farmer, so helps out in the field at planting and harvest time but her usual work is as a merchant at the local market. She has a small stall selling goods.

She normally buys her water for the family in bottles, but this becomes very expensive. Now she can use a water filter to make clean drinking water for her and her family.

Thank you Michael!

Dear Michael,

Seebanuane is 34 years old and has 1 child. She lives in Tarngam Village, Thakaek District which is in Southern rural Laos.

She is a subsistence rice farmer like most Lao people living in the rural villages of Laos. They use the village well for their drinking water but have to boil it first and then wait for it to cool.

She is happy to have the use of a water filter to clean the well water and make it fit for consumption without the hassle of boiling and waiting. Thank you Michael for your support!
