Pure Water For All
Posted by Chris Lunardi
A farmer's wife was visiting Tanzania, Africa. While visiting with some women there, she made the comment, "Back home, where I am from, we are experiencing a bad drought." One of the African women replied, "I am so sorry to hear that! How far do your women have to walk for water?" ..... Kind of puts things in perspective, doesn't it!?!
Please join us Monday, April 13th, for a presentation of the "Pure Water for All Foundation". Tracy Frahm will be with us to show us how one Iowa man was compelled to use his method of purifying water to help those in third world countries. His basic method of transforming salt water into a "Puride" solution is being introduced to villages that are currently drinking contaminated water from rivers, streams, and even wells. Dying from Typhoid, Cholera, & Dysentery contracted from contaminated water is an everyday reality for these people. "Pure Water for All" strives to provide safe drinking water to anyone who needs it.
Tracy Frahm lives in Miles, IA, with her husband, Gary, and her 2 children. She recently completed a 16 yr. career in the commercial gamebird industry where she raised 15,000 pheasants and chukar partridges per year for release at hunting preserves. She continues to farm with her husband and spends her "free" time as a volunteer EMT for her local ambulance service. Tracy joined the efforts of "Pure Water for All" last summer and now works as a Water Ambassador to raise the funds that make this mission possible.
