CLEAN WATER FOR A NORTH KOREAN FAMILY
Many North Koreans, especially those who live in rural areas, collect
their water from unprotected wells, springs, or rivers, and the water is
often contaminated. This leads to chronic diarrhea, malnutrition and
many serious health challenges. Diarrhea is the leading cause of death
in North Korea among young children.
For many years, CFK has been providing tuberculosis (TB) care centers
with Sawyer Point One water filter bucket sets. They have proven to
work very well in the local context, greatly impacting the health and
nutrition of patients recovering from tuberculosis. In 2020, we hope to
greatly expand this program in one of our supported provinces. Our goal
is to send a water filter bucket set home with every TB patient, and
every hepatitis patient being cared for in our HOPE for hepatitis
program. We know this will improve the health of these patients and
their families.
With minimal cleaning and maintenance, one water filter bucket set can
last for 10 years or more, providing clean, safe drinking water to all
the members of a household.
$25 will send the gift of clean water in the name of Christ to a North
Korean family. We invite you to join in this effort!
