Ecuador Water Project

Ecuador Water Project

EWB-PPC has partnered with Universidad San Francisco de Quito (USFQ) and Tingo Pucara Development Project, Ecuador, to bring drinking water to the community of Tingo Pucara.

Due to their extreme poverty, the community inhabitants have not been able to appropriately access the natural sources of underground water in the region. This project will improve basic quality of life by treatment of water, potable water distribution and waste disposal. Education will be provided to the community for effective use of this technology.
