WILLS POINT, TX – Clean water filter gave Sabin’s family relief after months of stomachaches caused by unsafe water. When purified water was too costly, this simple solution made drinking and cooking safer. Their story shows how one practical gift eased daily suffering, strengthened health at home, and also helped nearby families facing the same need.
Sabin looked at the muddy water. Perhaps he hesitated before taking a gulp. It was the only water he had, and he needed water to survive. What option did he have?
A contaminated open well was the only water source in Sabin’s village. Some people in the village occasionally bought purified water, but most of them were poor laborers who couldn’t afford to continually buy water. Sabin couldn’t afford it at all. Instead, he and his family of six drank solely from the open well.
For months, Sabin and his wife suffered with stomachaches. The doctor prescribed medication, but it brought little relief. The doctor then recommended they drink pure water. It was a simple solution, but one they couldn’t afford. They were left to suffer the ill-effects of their muddy drinking water.
