Hi Sharon, Our URL is: http://www.purifier.com.np but this is not an organization, per se, and I'm imagining that you'd like to make a tax deductable donation, to a 501 (c) 3, charitable organization. One route would be through my collaborators, Intenational Development Enterprises (IDE). IDE, Nepal, is working with me to establish the kind of market links that will get the purifiers from the manufacturer(s) to the users, the vulnerable who are in need of safe water.
But I'm also very enthusiastic about a new push here, to get the purifier systems into institutions. There is now a small group of people here who intend to put the systems into schools and orphanages, and maybe hospitals. I find this very direct approach to be appealing, bearing in mind, of course, the kinds of hygiene education and parallel quality control that are implicit. Please do let me know however it is that you may be interested in proceeding. Reid Sharon wrote: Reid- Is there a URL for your group or somewhere info can be obtained and donations can be sent?
