About FACE
Africa
FACE Africa works to identify and bring innovative and
effective non-profit programs and solutions to communities in Africa that have
potential to address critical needs.
FACE Africa supports programs
in the following four key areas:
STANDING IN SOLIDARITY WITH THE PEOPLE OF
HAITI
FACE Africa Gala to benefit Partners In Health's Haiti Relief
Efforts
We at FACE Africa stand in solidarity with all
the people of Haiti in this desperately challenging time. We commend
the many relief organizations, government agencies and individuals
who are working to meet the needs of all those suffering from the
devastating effects of the January 12 earthquake.
While FACE Africa is not a disaster response
organization and we do not have programs in Haiti, to support such
work, we encourage you to give directly to such organizations.
FACE Africa's
Clean Water Project
In 2009, we began
implementing our first clean water initiative in Barnesville, Liberia.
The project involved the installation of a water purification
system
known as
Skyhydrant.
Manufactured by engineering
giant Siemens and distributed by the
SkyJuice
Foundation (Sydney,
Australia),
the system can produce a guaranteed of 10,000 liters of drinking water
per day, with an expected 15,000 - 20,000 liters of drinking water per
day.
The porosity of the membrane allows for the
removal bacteria, viruses, turbidity and other contaminants.
