Louisville group sending 50 water purification units to Pakistan

In August 2010 after record breaking floods in Pakistan two doctors here in Louisville, Shahid Qamar and Mohammed Hussain, came to EDGE for training so they could help with the extreme need for safe water there. That beginning placed over 80 purifiers in Pakistan and trained more than 140 people to install, operate, and maintain the systems. We are so honored to work with this group of physicians in Louisville to save lives in Pakistan. This work continues today as reported in this story.
