Ecuador Earthquake Water Relief
In April of 2016, Living Water Industries took part in a humanitarian disaster relief effort following a powerful earthquake in Ecuador, the most severe the country had experienced in nearly seventy years. Living Water World Missions & Living Water Industries’ team travelled to the town of Pedernales, which was one of the communities most heavily impacted by the earthquake.
The mission focused on restoring access to clean water in an area where infrastructure had been significantly damaged. By constructing two water purification systems, the team helped support immediate water needs for the local population during the recovery period following the disaster.
Emergency Water Response Efforts
Disaster relief projects require fast, practical water solutions that can be implemented in challenging conditions. Living Water Industries contributed its water system experience to support emergency response efforts in Pedernales, helping deliver dependable water purification in a region facing widespread disruption and limited resources.
Participation in this mission was made possible through funding from additional sources, as well as water system and tank installation work completed by Living Water Industries in Arizona. This allowed the project to be carried out as a non-profit humanitarian effort, applying professional water expertise to support communities affected by natural disasters.
Supporting Communities During Crisis
Living Water Industries recognizes the importance of reliable water access during times of crisis. Projects like the Ecuador earthquake relief effort reflect the company’s commitment to using its technical skills to support communities facing urgent water challenges caused by natural disasters.
Applying Water Expertise in Disaster Relief
Through years of experience in water storage and system installation, Living Water Industries has developed the ability to adapt water solutions to a wide range of environments. That expertise allows the company to contribute effectively to disaster relief efforts by delivering practical, functional water systems when communities need them most.
