In early December, Cyclone Ditwah devastated Sri Lanka, destroying homes, crippling infrastructure, and leaving over 600 lives lost and 1.5 million people affected. Flooding has contaminated wells and water sources, with nearly 80% of purification centres damaged. Right now, safe drinking water is one of the most urgent needs.
Aquabox immediately mobilised. Working with our partners A-PAD SL and AIRLINK, we prepared to deliver our life‑saving water filters to communities in need.
The first shipment was sent out on 18th December, and is on its way. These filters will provide clean water for 10,000–12,000 people, helping to stop the spread of deadly waterborne diseases.
But the need is immense, and we’re already planning further support. Please support us in this response.
