Clean Potable Water is Vital to Human Life
The homes of many indigenous families do not have clean drinking water or even running water. This is also true for many schools and community centers in poor villages.
Unclean contaminated water causes many different kinds of illnesses. Sewage runoff and farm pesticides are just some of the contaminants found. Many children have been infected with parasites as a result of consuming water which is unsafe and dangerous.

Our Water Filter Program is largely made possible through the support of the Rotary Club of Florence, Oregon. The cost of a water filter for a needy family is $50. The Florence Rotary will add $50 to your contribution if it is sent directly to them. The Rotary Foundation will then match the matched amount of the full donation. In other words, your $50 contribution will become $200 worth of water filters for Mayan Families to distribute. Thank you Rotary!
If you would like to take advantage of the Florence Rotary Club's matching donation program
for Mayan Families, then please send your contributions to:
Florence Rotary Club District 5110
5043 Kelsie Court
Florence, OR 97439
Attention George Lewis for Mayan Families
Please make your check payable to: Florence Rotary Club
The minimum donation for the Rotary Club's matching program is $50 USD.
