PACKET OF LIFES QUALIFICATIONS AND AWARDS

Packet of Life operates through partnerships with ambassadors all over the globe, who then take the steps listed in the Join page to distribute our kit and get communities getting safe water. 

Packet Of Life was founded in 2023 and has been providing services to communities in need ever since.

Packet Of Life operates in several countries around the world, including India, Uganda, and Haiti. By becoming an ambassador (under join) you can bring it to your country, or your state :)

Potassium Aluminum Sulfate, or Alum, is a chemical substance that is inorganic and typically composed of sulfates, metals, and water molecules (Alum - Properties, Uses of Alum, Types, Water Treatment, Fitkari, n.d.). This chemical cleans water quickly by destabilizing the suspended particles in it, which make it cloudy and muddy (see Figure 1). The aluminum ion in Alum causes the destabilized particles to group together to a size big enough to sink and be removed, allowing the water to be removed of dirt. 

In essence, The Alum Kit is a kit in which Aluminum Potassium Sulfate (a life saving water cleaning chemical) is pre-portioned into bags (1 milliliter per 0.8 imperial gallon) and distributed to people who don't have access to water. In this kit there is also a strainer, and a manual in the native language, with pictures, to assure accessibility. I would not only distribute it, but contact local governments to get this spread around, and local schools, to teach people how to use alum.
