Fund raising for Water Filters, remote Cambodian farmers, Dec. 2013

Project name: "Pro LIFE": Long-Term Initiatives for Family & Education

We are at The Prohm Roth Inn, Prohm Roth guesthouse & Pro Angkor Travel start raising some funds for our community projects that’s located about 110 miles east of Siem Reap City. Trach village (of Sammaki commune, Brasat Ballaing district, Kampong Thom Province) is a very remote and depressing village, never seen a single foreign visitor, don't even mention about receiving any haze of benefits from Cambodian massive tourism industry. This poverty-ridden community of 170 families really needs help.
Why: Water = life. Good/clean water = good/healthy life. The rising pollution from un-treated water and contaminated soil start to hurt people’s life. The villagers don’t even boil water when they draw from the well.
WhatCeramic Water Filters: We plan to purchase from 150 to 200 units before the year end. 
When: We set to bring all the purchased Ceramic water filters to give to the villagers by mid of December.
Cost: This type of ceramic water filter is well-tested and recognized by W.H.O and cost $15/each including delivery.
