Our guest this week was Steve Rutledge, President of the charitable organisation Adopt A Village in Laos (AAVIL).Serving more than 65 villages (over 35,000 rural villagers), AAVIL provides support with family water filters, permanent water supplies, water tanks, taps and pipe, schools, toilets, sanitation & hygiene, student support and so much more for its residents, with new projects being announced each year.
In the photo, Steven is demonstrating the water filter that has been distributed to hundreds of families to provide safe, clean drinking water. The filters are made locally in Laos and each can service a family of 8 for many years.
If you would like to donate a water filter please see this BROCHURE; the cost is only C$125.
