Georgia Evans is the founder of the Village Care Project. She started going "Into Africa" taking Community Size Water Filters to a Masai village while on a wildlife photo safari.
Before her first trip she researched the village and realized a desperate need for clean drinking water. The women were hauling water from basically any stream or pond they could find. It was filthy and she wondered how they could drink this without getting sick.
So she found a simple solution, community size water filters. She took 2 of the larger community size plus 50 personal water filter straws to this Massai village in Africa. Then she hired guides and personally delivered and demonstrated how to use them so the villagers could have water clean for drinking.
These filters provide clean water that is free of disease so they can be healthier, happier and more productive.
On her second trip she also added mosquito bed nets that help prevent malaria to her project and gave one to every adult villager.
Since then she transformed the personal project into a public non profit.
Then she returned to 5 more villages with 3 volunteers in Jan 2020.
NOW since a layoff due to covid VCP is planning the next April 2022 trip back Into Africa Project.
On her second trip she also added mosquito bed nets to help combat malaria, a dreaded and life threatening disease, especially for children. Bed nets are such a simple solution and a "no brainer"!
Almost all the remote villages are in dire need of clean water and malaria bed nets.
So please realize this project is very important to these people!

We are also providing malaria bed nets to help curb the dangerous disease carried by mosquitoes.
Georgia saw a desperate need for clean water free of disease such as dysentery, etc. in African villages. Women and girls gather water from all kinds of places and the water is HORRIBLE!
