One of the easiest ways to combat poverty and disease is to provide access to clean water sources.
In Cambodia, village women and children are responsible for collecting water for the family, often from long distances. This can take up a good part of the day, leaving little time or energy to farm, cook, take care of family—especially the sick and elderly—clean, work for money outside the home, or go to school.For these people, access to safe drinking water is the foundation upon which their health, education, food, livelihood, and gender equalization depends. Children are often in danger of falling and drowning in traditional open pit wells while trying to collect water for the family.
To assist, Trailblazer Foundation focuses on two main water projects: bio-sand water filters and wells. These projects adhere to our philosophy of appropriate technology. (Click on the article above for more information)
