Donate a water filter to a community in need of clean drinking water !

This uniquely designed and revolutionary approach is going to redefine tourism for socially and environmentally concerned travelers. Our tours are carefully and innovatively designed for tourists who want to make a difference while also having fun and adventure. Come and join us and get a taste of the indigenous life of hill tribe peoples.

Why donate a Water Filter ?

Most of the Hill Tribe people rely on gravity-fed water sources that may be pools, small lakes or ponds ‘upstream’ from their location. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that disease spread by drinking dirty water is the leading cause of death in children under five in the world.

1.5 million children die every year from drinking dirty water (UNICEF) or one child dies from a water-related disease every 20 seconds. Therefore, the Raintree Foundation aims at providing the villagers with the ability to process their own clean and safe drinking water, reducing sickness and improving life quality.
