Clean Water
$50. Clean water for a family, for twenty years.
One filter bucket for a family with no safe water. It lasts two decades, and opens doors for the gospel in homes we'd never otherwise enter.
$50
The full cost of one water filter bucket, delivered to a family and set up in their home.
20 yrs
How long that one filter keeps giving the family clean water.
$0.21
What that works out to per month, for two decades.
Why buckets
The cheapest thing that lasts
It began when a car broke down in Guatemala. Waiting for help, Danny saw a young girl filling a bucket from a muddy stream: her family's drinking water.
Bottled water is gone by the afternoon. A well costs tens of thousands. A bucket filter is cheap enough for one person to fund, and lasts twenty years.
"We continue to deliver groceries to those in poverty, yet we carry a strong desire to see lasting transformation."
We've placed filters across remote Guatemala and Peru, in homes with no clean water at all.
How it works
From one gift to one family
Our teams carry the filters in and set them up with each family.
01
You fund a bucket
Fifty dollars covers the filter, bucket, fittings and delivery.
02
A team carries it in
Teams hand-carry filters into communities trucks can't reach, alongside the local church.
03
We install it with the family
We assemble it with the family, test it, and teach them to use and clean it.
04
They maintain it for twenty years
It needs backflushing, not replacing. We teach that on the spot and check in on later trips.
A bottle of water lasts an afternoon. A filter lasts 20 years.Nations in Love · Clean Water
What changes
Water is the first domino
Dirty water keeps children out of school and parents out of work, and turns food money into medicine money.
Fix the water and the rest starts moving: attendance, income, health.
