About this project
The Hydraid project focuses on providing safe water to some of the most rural and poor communities in Kenya. It is a program involving the sale and distribution of point of use, zero energy bio-sand water filters. The water filtration system is convenient and efficient, and able to provide enough safe water for domestic consumption for an average household.
