未来之根项目应邀与俄克拉荷马州的扶轮社合作,开展了一项意义非凡的滤水项目。我们向农村家庭分发了 300 个过滤器,这些家庭饮用和烹饪的水都受到了污染。

Sawyer 设计的过滤系统体积小、使用方便,可以连接到 5 加仑的水桶中,如果维护得当,可以使用长达 20 年。当需要清洁过滤器时,水会停止流出,可以使用装满水的注射器进行 "反冲洗"。过滤器中的微小纤维采用类似于肾脏透析的过程,可清除 99.9% 的细菌,减少腹泻和寄生虫等常见疾病。

每次分发活动都会首先开展教育活动,解决有关饮用受污染水的问题和疑虑。许多人不知道,他们清澈、好喝的水中看不见的微小寄生虫会让家人生病。接下来是过滤器的组装。在对每个部件进行说明后,向他们展示如何将过滤器连接到预先钻好孔的 5 加仑水桶上。然后,每个受助者组装好自己的过滤器,并演示他们成功地知道如何在需要时清洗过滤器后,就可以把过滤器带回家了。

在我所见过的扶轮社和其他组织所做的各种人道主义努力中,这个项目给社区带来的变化最显著、最直接。每个过滤器只需不到 50 美元,就能为整个家庭提供长达 20 年的清洁饮用水,这实在令人印象深刻。在支持者的帮助下,"未来之根 "希望继续在我们服务的社区分发过滤器。
