Emergency Safe Water Response
in Rural Border Communities
Alajuela, Costa Rica
2023
Impact: 200 people
Project Type: Immediate Relief
Local Partner: Urban Hydration
Funded by: WATERisLIFE
WATERisLIFE responded to urgent water needs in rural communities near the Costa Rica–Nicaragua border by distributing 200 Magic Straw personal filtration systems. These areas face persistent challenges in accessing clean drinking water, particularly for children. A WATERisLIFE volunteer personally delivered each filter, ensuring that families could begin using them immediately. This intervention offered a simple yet life-saving solution for households reliant on contaminated water sources.
