PROJECTS:

The devastation left by the recent earthquake
in Haiti has received worldwide attention. 
The people of Haiti are facing enormous challenges, including a lack of food, clean water, and medical supplies.  The C-CHANGE for Haiti Foundation is determined to help
meet those urgent needs.

WATER:

Unsafe drinking water is a severe problem that Haitians in Leogane are facing.  The lack of clean water thus leaves them vulnerable to water-borne diseases.  The C-CHANGE for Haiti Foundation is working to provide safe drinking water.  C-CHANGE would like to raise $150,000 to $200,000 in order to attain this goal, and is meeting with both manufacturers of water purification/filtration systems and with local Haitian leaders.

The Systems that are being evaluated so far are as follows:

System 1 – Centralized purification system; able to purify 30,000 gallons of water per day and is diesel powered.

System 2 – Centralized purification system; able to purify 30,000 gallons of water per day and is solar powered.

System 3 – Individualized filtration system; able to filter 10 gallons of water every 12 hours.  No power required.
