The LifeStraw explained: How it filters water and eradicates disease
The LifeStraw is close to eradicating an ancient disease that has effected millions of people for thousands of years. We take a look inside the technology behind the famous water filter. This is the story of how the LifeStraw came to be and how Jimmy Carter’s Carter Center is making it happen.
WARNING: Some images in this video may be disturbing to some viewers.
LifeStraw has provided over 38 million Guinea worm filters to the Carter Center since 1994. More recently, the company made the commitment to donate all future Guinea worm filters to the Center through the end of disease eradication. In 2019, 520,000 Guinea worm filters were donated.
