Geschichte

PureDrops is a young non-for profit organization founded by seven Master students of the University of St. Gallen, as part of their Masters Degree in Strategy and International Management.

Remote regions in underdeveloped and developing countries are in desperate need for clean water, as governments are capable of just providing the necessary infrastructures and financing to communities in large cities. That is why PureDrops aims at equipping exactly these underprivileged communities with the tools and knowledge necessary to provide themselves with clean water.

Our first mission took place in Indonesia, Madura Island, in April 2013, where we set the sustainable base for more such projects in the future. Together with Yayasan Pondok Kasih, a trusted local NGO, we implemented water filtration systems for individual households and educated communities on the vital importance of clean water in the everyday life.

After a successful mission in Guatemala, which took place in the Spring of 2014, we - nine SIM11 students - are looking to further expand on the previous efforts of this organization and we will need your support to achieve this goal. So please help us realize our project by donating on our website www.puredrops.org.
