“One well and a water filter will change the future health, education access and way of life for 15 people, or three families. It’s amazing what you can do with a PVC pump.”
This is Co-founder and Executive Director Chris Coats speaking about the origins of Trailblazer Foundation to influencer Heidi Bianco on The Nonprofit Podcast with Donobox’s nonprofit evangelist Cara Augspurger.
“We began with a school project, but quickly learned that water was the first priority. A person must have access to clean, potable water to improve health and sanitation. People must also have a water resource for growing their crops, livestock, and fish—the source of their food and commerce. Bad water is the cause of illness, malnutrition, and poverty. When there is good water, associated developments can occur to improve livelihoods and establish sustainable commerce.”
The Trailblazer Foundation is dedicated to improving the health, food security, education, and economic development in rural Cambodia; by providing clean water in ways that are self-sustaining by the individuals and the communities.
We sat down with Chris to discuss how they are improving the lives, health, and communities of hundreds of Cambodian families for over 17 years. https://thetrailblazerfoundation.org/
