Water Filter Distribution in Informal Settlements
of Viña del Mar

Parcela 11, Reñaca Alto, Viña del Mar, Chile | 2024
Impact: 800 people

Project Type: Immediate Relief – Corporate Volunteering
Local Partners: Municipality of Viña del Mar
Funded by: Betterfly, Nido de Águilas Chile, Rheem Chilena Spa, Easy Tienda

WATERisLIFE distributed 200 household ultrafiltration filters in Parcela 11, a vulnerable sector of Reñaca Alto, Viña del Mar. The intervention reached 800 people living in informal settlements without consistent access to safe water. Families in this area often rely on water trucks or informal public hookups and store water unsafely, increasing the risk of disease.

This was carried out as part of a corporate volunteer initiative, where Betterfly participated actively in the distribution and training sessions. The project was implemented in collaboration with the Municipality of Viña del Mar and private-sector partners, offering an immediate and dignified solution to a growing structural issue.
