We also went out to a small grouping of homes about 30 minutes away from our house yesterday to give out another type of filters. These filters are made of clay and saw dust and remove bacteria from the water. The clay pot is fired in a kiln and the sawdust burns away creating pores for the water to filter through. The people seemed excited and were happy to see us. We gave an overview on how to take care of these filters and what is involved in keeping them clean and usable. We have used one of these filters while here in country. These filters could become popular here in town and could help a lot of people if they are used properly.
