THE STRAW can help children like Nkaitole live past 5-years-old
WATERisLIFE continues to work with top water purification companies to make thousands of Straw filters available to those in need. Each Straw costs only $10 and provides a year’s worth of clean water for one person.

This revolutionary Straw has proven to be effective against waterborne diseases such as typhoid, cholera, dysentery, guinea worm, and diarrhea, and removes particles as small as fifteen microns.

The aptly-named LifeStraw is an invention that could become one of the greatest life-savers in history. It is a personal, low-cost water purification tool with a life time of 700 litres – approximately one year of water consumption for one person.

Positive test results have been achieved on tap, turbid and saline water against common waterborne bacteria such as Salmonella, Shigella, Enterococcus and Staphylococcu.

This Straw, however, saves lives on a daily basis by filtering out waterborne diseases – which accounts for over 6,500 deaths every day – 5,000 of those being children.
