January 2011 - Following Jim Rae's recent visit to Malawi 4 videos from various villages have been compiled to highlight success stories and other issues as follows:-
1 Mwalija village - highlighting poor sanitation habits
2 Chagawudyu village - where last year the cholera outbreak began now receiving clean water
2 Katemalinga village where the filter removes iron from the water making it purer as well as safer.
3 Handing out cups in Katemalinga to encourage villagers to drink water only from the filter.
All can be viewed at Waterforall Africa's facebook pageOctober 2010 - Chagwawudyo village in Southern Malawi installs a STAG water filter unit. The clip opens with a young child operating the pump demonstrating ease of use for anyone to access the unit's clean water. A source of contamination - manure on the fields - and the benefits of clean water are described. The clip ends with the villagers celebrating. Please note the unit can be used next to any water source. Feel free to pass on this video link.

August 2010 - Jim Rae has just returned from Malawi having installed 4 filters. The units are in areas where they will be severely tested and where they are most needed. Plastic cups have been given to the children in the hope this will encourage them to drink our water more frequently. So far the units have delivered remarkable results. See our Map of STAG locations to review readings before and after STAG installation.
