First off, thank you all for your continued interest in Sahakkum! We could not make this project a reality without all of your help and support.
At our meeting today, we showed several YouTube videos about water filtration systems that have already been implemented in provinces in Cambodia. Below are the links to these videos so that you can learn more:

• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDo8jUJxYDI (by Water for Cambodia)
• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HAmAG2WAnU&feature=related (by Sustainable Cambodia)
In addition, we have identified organizations that have already been addressing Cambodia's water issue. We are in the process of contacting these organizations to talk about partnering with our project. They are:
• Sustainable Cambodia
• Water for Cambodia
• Samaritan's Purse
We want to focus more on a multi-purpose well for the whole community rather than an individual household. We also might want to provide a well WITH some type of filtration system attached to it. Overall, we think this may provide a possibility of micro-enterprise for the people in the community.
Going forward, we need to continue to do research in the following areas:
• What part and which community in Cambodia?
• What are the needs of that specific community?
Thank you once again for your commitment to Sahakkum. God bless you all.
