Progetto Ban Poung Village

Ban Poung Village Project

In a remote corner of the world, about 40 km away from the Plain of Jars, lies the village of Ban Poung. A place characterized by logistical difficulties and poverty, where the conditions of the roads make it almost inaccessible. The community, which is expanding due to forced migration resulting from dam construction projects, is struggling to secure the basic necessities of life - one of which is access to clean, safe water.

The situation is as urgent as it is critical, as the lack of hygiene and drinking water has become one of the main causes of mortality, especially infant mortality, in the region. With an initial population of 25 families, the village is about to welcome another 20 families displaced by the construction of a new dam in the region.

At this crucial time, we have the opportunity to make a significant difference. We are trying to raise funds - a target of €1000 - which will allow us to provide 46 water purifying filters, a vital element for each family and for the village school. These filters, known as TerraClear water purifiers, represent tangible hope and a step towards a better life.

TerraClear: A Guardian Angel in Ceramic

The TerraClear Ceramic Water Purifier (CWP) is more than just a filter; it is a symbol of hope and a means to ensure a safer and healthier future. Operating through a vase-shaped ceramic filter element, each unit is capable of producing 1.7 to 3.5 liters of drinking water per hour, eliminating microbes and other contaminants with great efficiency. A sustainable, zero-emission solution that promises to protect communities from water recontamination by providing a constant flow of purified water.
