Bringing Safe Water to a Thirsty World.

“Water washes everything, but it is not easy to wash water.” – African Proverb


the

problem


More than a billion people do not have access to safe water.


Contaminated water is the #1 CAUSE OF DEATH in developing countries.


On average, every 8 seconds a child dies of a waterborne disease.


Wells are often contaminated by seeping surface water and pit latrines.


Midway through the rainy season, the water table often rises into the pit latrine zones contaminating wells.


Without a sanitation program,

all kinds of waste enters the water supplies.


Bottled water is too expensive for the poor.


the

solution


Chlorination!

Chlorination has protected the United

States and other countries for over 90

years and has saved more lives than perhaps any other technology!


The New Life International Water Purifier:

How do you bring this life-saving technology to those people who

need safe water the most?

Provides simple on-site chlorination from salt.


How it Works:

1. Generates Chlorine by an electrolysis process.

2. Separates the salt (NaCl) into its components Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl).

3. Sorts the sodium ions from the chloride ions using the 12 VDC charge from a car battery or other source of direct current.

Independent Laboratory Testing of the New Life International Water Purifier:

“The device produces chlorinated water at a rate that is more than sufficient to destroy, with proper contact time (as instructed in the manual), illness-

causing microorganisms in the water.”

what we do


Training:

Training nationals in the use and maintenance of the purifier is vital to long-term success.


Disaster Relief

After a natural disaster, a lack of safe water can become just as dangerous as the disaster itself. The New Life International Water Purifier can provide safe, affordable, and sustainable water solutions for drinking and other essential purposes.


A Report from Uganda

One of the water committee members is also the local health worker responsible for a number of settlements in the islands. Her report was that prior to the installation of safe drinking water in

Lingira, 90% of all families suffered from diarrhea during the rainy season. Since the system has been in use, she hardly sees diarrhea-related

illnesses.


New Life International seeks to bring safe water to all people everywhere – from the largest cities to the smallest villages.


The New Life International Water Purifier is highly adaptable. It can become part of a permanent water treatment system or be transported from place to place depending upon the need and facilities available.


Safe water is a desperate need in all areas of developing countries. The New Life International Water Purifier can bring safe water to villages, medical clinics, hospitals, schools, churches, orphanages, disaster relief, and refugee camps.


The New Life International Water Purifier provides Safe water for potentially less than $1 per person per year.


New Life International Water Purification System

More than a “Product”, but rather a MISSION DRIVEN VISION.

A vision that water purification is a pathway to Community Development by bringing safe water and a future to the under served; whether they are in the rural remote areas or the crowded slums.


What is Needed?

“What good is it my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith

save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him,

‘Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,’ but does nothing about his physical needs, what

good is it?” James 2:14-16


Since 1998 New Life International has helped place more than 1000 purifiers in 62 countries
