The Bucket Ministry was founded in 2012 on the heels of an opportunity to join the non-profit organization, Amazon Outreach, on a mission trip to the Brazilian Amazon. They are a passionate group of ordinary people singularly committed to bringing The Gospel and the gift of clean, safe, drinking water to all the underserved areas of the world.

Using the same technology as kidney dialysis, the Sawyer PointONE filter removes all harmful bacteria, protozoa, and cysts like E. coli, Giardia, Cholera, and Typhoid once water passes through its membrane. 

‍

The Bucket Ministry now has a growing presence in over twenty countries around the world with new ones added yearly. The Bucket Ministry’s mission will not be complete until everyone in need has access to clean drinking water, and their commitment to this cause has only strengthened over the years. ‍

DATA-DRIVEN SOLUTIONS‍

‍

The Bucket Ministry has a fairly sophisticated method of tracking the distribution of resources to maintain financial transparency with donors. Since February of 2019, The Bucket Ministry has employed the GIS system to provide our staff and donors with a much richer dataset of the specific location and recipient of our filters. 

‍

Each filter receives a unique, waterproof barcode which, at that point of distribution, is scanned with a tablet or smartphone. Then, field missionaries collect brief, but useful, information on the physical and spiritual health of the recipient. This data serves as the starting point for three follow up visitations that teams perform in the field. Upon each follow up, the pastor or missionary will again scan the barcode and collect further data that can be compared against the original distribution data to show if their health and faith are improving. All donors can have access to this information.
