Maia Project: Clean Water for Children in Gaza

Organization information

Middle East Children's Alliance

Location: Berkeley, United States of America

Summary

The student parliament at a middle school in Gaza voted for the one thing they wanted most for their school: They chose clean water. The water in Gaza is polluted with sea water and chemicals. Poor families are faced with the "choice" of purchasing commercial water or risking the health and well being of their children. This project started in response to the children's request. We build and maintain water purification units in schools and kindergartens throughout Gaza.
