Serious topic. Did you know that nearly 6,000 people (mostly children) die every day from consuming unsafe water? I recently came across something called the LifeStraw, which is a filtration system designed by Vestergaard Frandsen for people in developing countries. There are two models: LifeStraw Family and LifeStraw Personal. While LifeStraw Family works as a regular water filter, (it filters a minimum of 18,000 litres of water, providing safe drinking water for a family for more than two years), LifeStraw Personal is portable and can be worn around the neck. Its owner can use the straw to drink water safely at any water source! LifeStraw Personal kills 99.9999% of waterborne bacteria, 98.5% of viruses, and filters a minimum of 700 litres of water, enough for one person and one year! Really, really awesome.

Each LifeStraw Personal costs ONLY $6.50. I can't wait to donate.
This is something that I really feel passionate about, and I hope you guys can read about it and see how lucky we have it.



go with love.
