Dan Kane shared how the Rotary Club of Stratford has evolved an idea that originated within Rotary in the UK.
The idea is to create a simple Aquabox unit consisting of 2 plastic buckets, a spigot, 2 ceramic filters, a scrubbing pad and a cartridge gauge where dirty water runs through the top bucket, is filtered and sits in the bottom bucket providing a family of 5 with safe water for up to a year. Stratford Rotary has also been able to reduce the cost from $125 to $30 per unit. They are looking for financial assistance as well as volunteers to participate in the building process.
