Projects::Pure and Safe Drinking Water
for School Children
This project is submitted by Grant A Smile
Foundation of India, a Pune based NGO established in 1998 and has
been running projects such as Grant a Smile, Old Age Home, and Rainbow
Home - respite housing for families of children with life threatening
illness.
The proposed Pure and Safe Drinking water
for school children will be implemented in select 50 schools in
rural areas of Pune, Thane and Raigad districts by using the recently
developed UF Membrane technology. This technology is approved by
National Institute of Virology and the filters are already used
for tsunami affected areas, flood affected areas in Andhra Pradesh,
colleges under University of Pune in Pune, Nagar and Nasik districts
and several schools and hostels.
MF proposes to support this project for
installing the filters in 50 selected primary schools in rural areas
in Thane, Raigad and Pune districts. Grant A Smile Foundation has
necessary technical and administrative capacity to implement this
project. Project Cost: $ 40,000 for one year
