At the end of January, we traveled to Accra to pick up 8 water filters. These are the water filters that are promoted by Potters for Peace , an organization I was introduced to back in 1989 when my mother traveled to Nicaragua with Potters for Peace Brigade. I was, again introduced to the filters by my mother when I visited her in Nicaragua in the August 2014. We used the water filter in Nicaragua. Before leaving for Ghana, I looked up Potters for Peace online and found that there were two distributors in Ghana, one in Accra and the other in Tamale. Several of us went to Accra and we took care of several tasks along the way. We ended up getting nine water filters. We brought them back to Winneba and distributed them to the lecturers who had pre-paid for them. They will last for 3 years. Imagine all of the water that will not be consumed from plastic water bottles and sachets; all of the plastic water bottles and sachets that will not find their way to the beach. I hope that someone in Winneba will begin distributing the water filters. They are truly amazing.
