The article intrigued him, and he contacted the Danish manufacturer. The details contained in their reply encouraged him to show them to his Rotary Club, who decided to promote the LifeStraw, and do what they could to donate them to those in need of safe water. 51.79881 -3.1734651.79881-3.173462930533Sun, 17 Apr 2011 07:58:29 -0400http://www.mapbuilder.net/users/water_projects/94929 Elaine Bannon is in Kenya (she is in the bush near the Equator) working with the Masasai warriors. She has received a consignment of personal lifestraws via Brynmawr W P.
