Everyday, roughly 37,000 people are forced to flee their homes due to conflict. With your gift of $37, you are a humanitarian activist.
Our biodigester facilitates a natural process called anaerobic digestion. This process reduces pathogen counts (the things that make people sick) in waste. This process is carried out by bacteria that live around body temperature, or 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. With your gift of $98.60, you are supporting the use of science and research to help meet the basic needs of displaced and marginalized communities.
Poor sanitation poses a huge risk to the environment, along with public health. Through your donation, you are supporting the protection of the environments at risk from the lack of adequate waste processing, including the world’s longest natural beach, which is in Cox's Bazar and is 120 km long!
Only 3% of refugees globally enroll in college or university. Lack of adequate sanitation impedes students' ability to attend school. By supporting improved access to sanitation, you are supporting access to education and better futures for refugees around the world!
There are 70.8 million displaced persons worldwide, according to the UNHCR. Many of these people have to live in refugee camps that have no sanitation infrastructure. Your donation is supporting the development of a device that can be deployed to refugee camps to lower pathogen counts in waste and improve hygiene for the community!
There are an estimated 919,000 people living in Cox’s Bazar in Bangladesh, currently the largest refugee camp in the world.
The UN Sustainable Development Goal for sanitation includes to end open defication and achieve access to adequate and equitable sanitation and hygiene by 2030. By supporting our project, you will help further develop resources that help meet this goal.
