THE PROBLEM:
In the heart of South Mumbai, specifically in Tardeo, a fundamental right remains elusive: access to clean drinking water. Despite municipal water supply, our neighbouring underprivileged communities face a critical issue -contaminated water.
Hutments and redevelopment societies struggle with inadequate handling and storage, leading to waterborne ailments. Research has revealed alarming levels of microbial contamination and pathogens in stored water, posing a significant threat to community health.
As I witness this harsh reality in my neighbouring community, I'm compelled to act.
THE INITIATIVE:
To address this crisis, I've launched an initiative providing affordable, low-maintenance water filters to these communities.
My goal is to provide 100 water filters, improving the health and well-being of approximately 500 individuals.

Many water filters available in the market are expensive, difficult to handle, and often require electricity. Our locally sourced filters address these concerns, ensuring accessibility and ease of use for the communities we serve.
Help us bring clean drinking water to those who need it most. Your support will:
- Saves lives by reducing waterborne diseases (diarrhoea, cholera, typhoid) and chronic diseases (cancer, kidney issues).
- Improves health and well-being for 500+ individuals, especially vulnerable populations (children, elderly, pregnant women).
- Breaks the cycle of poverty by reducing medical expenses and lost productivity.
- Increases children's attendance and performance in school, securing their future.
- Empower communities to prioritize health, education, and economic growth.

ABOUT ME:
Hi, I'm Dev Kapur, a Grade 12 student at Cathedral John Connon School, Mumbai. As a passionate science student, I'm driven to apply my knowledge to create a positive impact in my community. During my interactions with south Mumbai communities, I witnessed firsthand the struggles they face due to contaminated water.
This sparked my determination to find a solution. Through rigorous research and collaboration with local experts, I've developed a comprehensive plan to provide clean drinking water. My mission is to provide 100 filter units to south Mumbai communities, improving the health and well-being of approximately 500 individuals, reducing waterborne diseases, and promoting community engagement and awareness about water hygiene.
To make this a reality, I need your support. Each filter unit costs INR 850, and I aim to raise INR 85,000 for 100 units.
Your contribution will directly impact families in need.
