Rotary Provides Cayo Villages Water Filters

Rotary Provides Cayo Villages Water Filters | Cayo Scoop!  The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it

Feelgood story of the day.  Rotary brought in water filters to villages all around Belize, including 9 in Cayo.  Now many thousands more Belizeans have a clean source of water.  Thanks, Rotary!

 

"The Rotary Club of San Ignacio was pleased to partner with the Rotary Club of Belize City to distribute Sawyer Point One Water Filters to nine rural villages in the Cayo District.  Filters were delivered with the help of visiting Rotarians from Clovis, New Mexico and Tulsa, Oklahoma.  The nine villages that received filters were, Duck Run 1, Duck Run 2, Duck Run 3, Los Tambos, Santa Teresita, Selena, La Gracia, El Progresso and Cool Shade.  Providing safe drinking water is one of the main areas of focus for Rotary International and hopefully many more villages will benefit from this humanitarian effort."

Pure water is rarely available in these kind of places. With people there drinking unclean water may be very dangerous for their lives. This causes many lives to be taken away due to lack of clean water. Poverty is related to water since they may not afford to buy clean water or even produce clean water. Water is essential for humans and poverty is preventing them from drinking clean water. If I am one of the children whom get to use the water filters, I would be very thankful because I will feel safe drinking water rather than having to feel unsafe and worried drinking unclean water.
