Country of Focus

Have you ever wondered why poverty levels are so high in some places and much less significant in others? We at AirFlow pondered that same question and wondered why countries like Nigeria have a higher poverty rate than many other countries worldwide. When we thought about ways we could aid in breaking this cycle of poverty, we looked to one of the main culprits to this never ended cycle of poverty in countries like Nigeria; lack of access to clean water. At AirFlow, we are first taking our efforts over to Nigeria where poverty levels reach 71% of the overall population and 33% of those people do not have a sustainable clean source of water. 55 Million people suffer everyday from the lack of this necessity, and we knew that change had to be implemented for long-term change. The main focus of AirFlow is to provide struggling countries with a clean and renewable water source. As of now, people, (mainly the women of Nigeria), walk an average 3.7 miles a day to provide their loved ones with clean water. To exert such energy just to provide a clean water source is saddening. Due to this, we at AirFlow want to help. 

With our highly sustainable product and resources available to us, we are able to help the impoverished areas of Nigeria, especially over the course of their extended dry periods. Nigeria experiences an 8 month dry period where the average humidity can reach 84.7%. The humidity is detrimental to the health of Nigerians, however, with the use of our products at AirFlow, we can be what provides sustainable water in these times of extended drought. This is a country where necessities have been denied due to the conditions of their environment and the cemented cycle of poverty. With the committed individuals here at AirFlow, as well as your help through donations and service, we can help provide sustainable clean water to the people of Nigeria and put an end to this cycle of poverty.
