Whenever a disaster strikes, whether it is natural or man-made, there is always an urgent need to provide safe drinking water to those affected. Water supplies are often severely affected in the aftermath of a disaster. Water pipes may be destroyed or the water supply will be contaminated with water from sewage and drains.
Since its formation in 1992, Aquabox has sent more than 125,000 aid boxes to more than 50 countries around the world, helping hundreds of thousands of people in times of crisis.
Aquabox responds by sending its water filters and humanitarian aid.
A family filter can deliver up to half a million litres of clean drinking water and a community filter over 1 million litres of clean drinking water over its working life.
Each Aqua-aid Survival Box, which is tailored to support a family group, contains water purification filters as well as items of humanitarian aid to help with shelter and shelter building, lighting, cooking and feeding, educational development and hygiene. https://aquabox.org/
