Yayuk
325 USD financed in June 2016
Yayuk lives in Tulangan, Sidoarjo Regency, on Java, Indonesia's largest island by population. In Indonesia, you cannot drink from the tap and most people don't even have a tap. Therefore, most Indonesians depend on purchasing or boiling water. Yayuk heard of a new option for disinfecting water when the promotion crew from Nazava Water Filters held safe-water training in her vicinity. Nazava Water Filters filter well, rain, and city water so it becomes safe to drink without boiling and without using fuel or electricity. Yayuk, who is also a health worker, took the opportunity and became a reseller of Nazava Water Filters in her community. This is the first time Yayuk has applied for a loan. This loan will allow her to buy 20 filters and sell them on consignment to her community, making safe drinking water available to 100 people.
