Our Mission

To prevent waterborne disease by promoting family health and self-reliance through at-home, point-of-use water treatment.

Our Vision

Service drives all program activity. Honesty, integrity, and fairness are basic to all productive collaborations.

Good Science is fundamental to improving the human condition.

Adaptation and flexibility are inherent in all program processes.

Transparency is basic to all working relationships with staff, partner agencies, and donors.
