Faith and Hope Primary School Gets SAM2 Filter

Reported by Chip Kragt, Story written by Amanda Mulder

For schools in Rwanda, access to clean water is a huge challenge. That's why 20 Liters is committed to installing SAM2 Community Filters in rural schools.

Location:
Country: Rwanda
District: Bugesera
Sector: Rilima
Cell: Kabeza
Village: Gako
Solution:
SAM2 (Sand And Membrane) filters are large capacity solutions with a 10-year-plus lifespan. A SAM2 requires no electricity or fuel and has no moving parts, making it the ideal solution for rural areas. Schools and Health Clinics are trained how to use and maintain the filter, empowering them to be self-sufficient and address their own needs.
