Under the Lha Clean Water Project, we have installed 27 water filter systems in various schools, institutions, nunneries and monasteries, free of cost to the users. This month, we have started on the annual maintenance service required for all the systems installed to date. The monsoon season is when the most cases of water born diseases occur, making it opportune to service the filters when possible before the monsoon and we have completed the servicing for the filters in and around Dharamshala. The rest of the servicing is ongoing.

We continue to receive applications and requests for filters from communities facing problems with safe drinking water and are seeking funds to enable us to carry on with this project and help these applicants on the waiting list.
Our surveys of the communities where we have installed water filter systems have all produced positive feedback, especially in terms of curbing waterborne illness during the monsoon. We are therefore encouraged to continue this project and welcome and appreciate individual and institutional donors who can enable us to continue to provide much needed clean water.
