Pure water remains elusive to too many people – either just not available at all or priced out of reach of the poorest families, but at least in the Dominican Republic there is a guaranteed solution. Mission Emanuel’s water treatment and distribution centers provide affordable pure water to thousands each day in poor suburbs of Santo Domingo. Each Card purchased for $15 allows a family to purchase ten 5-gallon bottles for only 5 pesos. That’s the equivalent of 12.5 cents. Competitive rates in our area run as high as one dollar US which is well beyond the affordability of most residents. Hence, they drink contaminated water.
Tests from the Public Health Department of the DR has noted that our water is among the purest water on the island. They have also reported that water-borne illness in the area we serve has been reduced by 70%. It’s an on-going battle, but one that can be won!!
We are proud of this ministry and business since we provide a important and affordable product while stimulating the local economy with our growing network of water providers.
