Editor’s Note: I discovered Safety, Harbor, Florida-based Sawyer Products while investigating a story on insect repellents. Sawyer not only has effective repellents but is also in the water filtration business. They make systems for camping and a number of other applications. In perusing their website I noted “Mission Fiji“, the company’s NGO project to bring clean, drinkable water to the Fiji Islands.
I was not expecting to see “Fiji” come up on this company’s website. Suffice to say, I was pleasantly surprised. I was also pleased to see that in a world where being a good Samaritan is looked upon by so called “thought leaders” as “woke”, here was a U.S. company going out of their way to bring clean water to rural communities in Fiji (and other Pacific Islands).
I know how crucial access to drinkable water is in Fiji because I contracted a parasite in a Viti Levu village many years ago and became very ill. Being a privileged white guy, when I returned home, I was lucky enough to have a tropical medicine doc assess the situation and get me the meds I needed.
