Our AQUABOX is madefrom locally-sourcedcomponents, and is assembled here in Stratford by dedicatedvolunteers, so there are NO administrationcosts. A basic hygiene kit is also packed ineach unit.
Global Medic, a non-profit disaster responseorganization of paramedics and first respondervolunteers, distributes the AQUABOX units
