Interventions in the Brazilian Amazon

Tefé, a riverside community near Manaus, and Quilombola Territory, Brazil | 2024
Impact: 310 people

Project Type: Immediate Relief
Funded by: WATERisLIFE

In Tefé and another riverside community near Manaus, 70 ultrafiltration bucket filters were distributed, reaching 280 people and addressing urgent health risks related to water contamination and infrastructure gaps.
Later, WATERisLIFE joined a historic health mission to the largest Quilombola Territory in Brazil, where 30 medical professionals provided healthcare services to hundreds of residents. As part of this effort, seven filters were delivered to ensure safe water access for the health team operating in remote areas without sanitation or water treatment.
