Flint Community Lab Accelerates Efforts for Residential Water Testing

gbautz — Fri, 17 Jun 2022 21:06:21 +0000

In August 2019 Nalgene established the Nalgene Water Fund committed to raising awareness that equitable access to clean water is a domestic issue, not just an issue that impacts “third-world” countries. For its first donation, in late 2020, Nalgene Outdoor selected the McKenzie Patrice Croom Water Lab, more commonly referred to as the “Flint Community Lab,” a creation between the Flint Development Center and non-profit Freshwater Future. The Flint Community Lab is a first-of-its-kind, community-built and operated lab that will, over the course of three years, provide free water testing to all households in Flint, Michigan, a community still reeling from its 2014 water crisis.

Thermo Fisher Scientific and Nalgene Outdoor donated nearly $650,000 to the Flint Community Lab in state-of-the-art laboratory instruments, critical funding and reusable bottles used for both water sample collection and continued use at home. This donation includes a total of 21,000 Nalgene bottles over the three years to be used to collect and test water; and then refill and reuse once the drinking water is determined safe.

The Lab’s guiding principle is for the community, by the community. High school and college students take a multi-generational approach to go door-to-door to collect water samples from homes that are then tested in the Lab. The Lab even has a viewing area for Flint residents to watch the testing!

With summer — and a new crop of interns — joining the Lab, Nalgene recently delivered 1,500 more bottles to the Flint Community Lab to aid in the Lab’s commitment to meet or exceed 500 sample collections per month.

“We use the Nalgene bottles to collect samples from residents, churches and businesses. Nalgene provides 100% of the bottles used in our sample collection, so the best way to describe them would be the "backbone" of our field work.”

Candice Mushatt, director, Flint Community Lab

Nalgene Outdoor: Hi! And welcome to this position! As we work through the otherside of this Covid pandemic, what major initiatives is the Flint Community Lab pursuing?

Candice Mushatt: We are looking forward to the summer months, more people will be outside, there is a certain comfort level that comes with open air as opposed to enclosed spaces, so we will reach more residents at events or on their front porch. We are looking to meet and exceed our 500 (sample collection) per month goal, in July we will be launching a campaign to do just that.

Nalgene Outdoor: Where are you in your goal to test all 21,000 homes in Flint?

Candice Mushatt: Unfortunately, Covid has slowed down some of our timing, so we are still at what feels like the beginning of the process — currently at just under 3,000 homes. That said, we have a plan in place to use the summer and outdoor months, as well as a more sustainable model for the winter months, to continue to make significant progress to test every residential home in Flint.

Nalgene Outdoor: How many local high school students are you currently working with and what are there roles and responsibilities?

Candice Mushatt: We are currently interviewing our next group of high school students, in Flint/Michigan the school year is coming to a close. We are in the process of recruiting new students and will have 5 or 6 new students working with us all summer starting at the end of June.

Nalgene Outdoor: What is the most impactful way in which the Flint Community Lab supports its local community?

Candice Mushatt: The Flint Community Lab is important for Flint residents because it is a stand alone lab, we are not connected to any governmental entity, so it has become a trusted source for residents that are still very skeptical of information coming from the government. The Lab was founded by Flint residents, it is run by Flint residents and we offer internships to Flint and surrounding area students. This adds to the credibility of the Lab. When you have people who not only work here, but live here and are also affected by the crisis, it gives you a sense of confidence in the integrity of the lab.

We are them and they are us.

Nalgene Outdoor: What are you most excited about in year two of this program?

Candice Mushatt: In addition to finally getting back out there and on pace with our goals to help provide transparency and trust for Flint residents with resources from within the community, the new media lab! This is a collaboration between The Flint Development Center, The Flint Community Lab, We the People of Detroit and Freshwater Futures. We are so excited about this addition! To further build ties with the community and show total transparency, we are able to broadcast live over multiple streaming platforms right from inside the lab. We also have a robot, ROVY, that we can send a temporary link to users and they are able to control it and tour the lab from wherever they are in the world!

A student helps ROVY offer a tour to those outside the Lab.

10 Clean Water Projects We’re Inspired By

Nalgene Team — Fri, 10 Jun 2022 20:04:00 +0000

There are few things more crucial in our lives than clean water. Having access to clean water really isn’t something that’s optional, or that’s just nice to have. It’s a vital necessity that ensures the health and safety of the people who drink it. If you can turn on the tap and fill your Nalgene bottle with crisp, clean water in seconds, then you’re one of the lucky ones. Clean water at your fingertips is a beautiful thing, and despite how much we all need it, not everyone has access to it.

But there’s good news: many people and organizations are taking clean water efforts into their own hands, and are launching water recycling and sustainability projects. The people behind these projects are doing some truly incredible work, and are making real strides when it comes to improving access to clean water.

Let’s dive into the state of clean water today, and some inspiring clean water projects which are making a real difference.

When Clean Water Isn’t Just a Sip Away

Whether you’re a toddler or an Olympic athlete, staying hydrated is absolutely essential to human health. But not everyone in the world has regular access to clean water.

The World Health Organization estimates that while 74% of people in the world use safe drinking water regularly, the rest do not. Research from the WHO also breaks down some of the details: about 2 billion people do not use safely managed water services. This means they might have to travel 30 minutes or more to clean water, or they might drink from unprotected sources, such as springs and lakes.

What exactly happens when we don’t have access to clean drinking water? Unsafe water sources can be riddled with bacteria, can transmit diseases, and can present significant health risks to the people drinking it. The unfortunate truth is that hundreds of thousands of people die every year from illnesses transmitted through unsafe drinking water, including many children.

That’s why clean water projects are absolutely critical. When people, governments, and organizations help create access to clean water, they don’t only offer ease and comfort: they help save lives.

10 Clean Water Projects We Are Inspired By

In the wake of the state of clean water around the globe, many individuals, non-profits, governments, and other types of organizations have risen to the occasion, and have developed their own incredible clean water projects.

Here’s our list of 10 clean water projects that we are inspired by, and a bit about the groups behind them.

This California municipality secured $3.79 million in funding for two of its water projects. These projects will install thousands of feet of pipeline to help bring recycled water, which is clean and reliable, to area middle schools and a park. These projects will also prevent about 40 million gallons of treated sewer water from being sent into the Pacific Ocean each year.

Charity Water has been on a mission to help provide basic access to clean and safe drinking water since 2006. How exactly do they do that? They partner with local organizations in places across Africa, South America, and Asia to create access to water. These projects include digging new wells, rehabbing pipe systems and taps, and creating new water points.

Even students are making waves when it comes to clean water projects. Take Martin Leet and Leah Voytovich, for example. These two University of Pennsylvania students won a grant to fund Maji, their nonprofit that helps refugee initiatives in Uganda. Maji has already completed several community initiatives, including the construction of a solar-powered water tank for the Olua I community. Their project also addresses other challenges in Uganda, such as supply chain issues.

Planet Water Foundation is working hard to bring clean water to those in need. It’s deploying 28 different water systems across the world. Planet Water Foundation’s 28 AquaTower projects will bring clean water across Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Mexico, Philippines, and Vietnam.

Their technology makes water safe and drinkable by removing bacteria and other contaminants, so people can have clear, delicious clean drinking water. And that’s not all: this project will also provide schools with sanitation infrastructure.

This San Diego project is considered a first of its kind in the area, and it will provide 20% of the water supply to the city of Oceanside. It’s a potable water reuse project, which will purify recycled water, in order to supply an abundance of clean water to homes and businesses.

This $70 million clean water project is tech savvy, and uses processes like ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis, and advanced oxidation. Ultimately, it will provide the city of Oceanside with 3-5 million gallons of clean, recycled water per day.

Pure Water for the World is another great organization that partners with “rural and underserved communities,” to create safe water solutions. They don’t just provide clean water, they also have sanitation and hygiene education and training programs.

Pure Water For The World says it’s reached more than 750,000 people in 200 communities across the world. The best part? They focus on providing children and families with clean water resources, as well as education and other resources.

The Water Project is a non-profit that works exclusively in sub-Saharan Africa, and says they help communities with clean water by providing “training, expertise, and financial support.” They say that this issue affects women, children, and families, and that specifically women and girls can spend hours a day fetching drinking water that is not even safe for drinking.

The Water Project works in 11 African countries including Uganda, Sierra Leone, and South Sudan, to create clean water opportunities.

Water.org is a global nonprofit that has made some big strides when it comes to clean water: it says its projects have impacted more than 43 million people in 17 countries with their clean water solutions, by working with local partners.

Their work is done by securing loans for clean water projects, helping with access to financing, and working to influence public policy.

WaterAid is an international non-profit that focuses on global water resources. They don’t just cover clean drinking water, but also access to sanitation and hygiene resources. That includes working toilets, and good sanitation.

In the areas where they work, WaterAid says that people drink natural sources like rivers, which can be full of waste and parasites that spread disease. That’s why WaterAid specifically taps into groundwater, drills wells, and harvests rainwater so people have access to clean water, no matter where they’re located. They also say that around the world, one in four people don’t have access to a decent toilet, which creates hygiene issues.

Not to toot our own horn, but we here at Nalgene Outdoor understand just how important clean drinking water is. That’s why we created the Nalgene Water Fund, a project that supports domestic communities here in the US that are struggling with access to clean water. We do this by partnering with grassroots nonprofits to raise funds and awareness.

How exactly does the Nalgene Water Fund work? We create limited-edition Nalgene bottles that are part of the Nalgene Water Fund, and we will contribute $5 of every purchase of a Nalgene Water Fund Exclusive Bottle to Reverb, Inc.

Plus, the designs of these bottles are pretty incredible. Take our Tó éí iiná” (Water is Life) bottle, created in partnership with Jaden Redhair. This 20-year-old is an accomplished Navajo artist born for the Jemez Clan. Sales from this bottle go towards combating the water crisis facing America’s largest indigenous tribe.

Nalgene Water Fund Helps Finance Critically Needed Water Deliveries to Navajo Nation

Sales from specially designed bottle by Diné Artist Jaden Redhair directly give back to community

In November 2020, Nalgene launched the limited edition “Tó éí iiná” (Water is Life) reusable bottle to benefit Navajo Nation as part of its Nalgene Water Fund to promote awareness about access to clean water in the U.S. The bottle features a striking landscape of Monument Valley by Diné designer Jaden Redhair, 20, member of the Jemez Clan, and a life-long Navajo Nation, resident.

With record day-of launch sales, Nalgene fans from around the country showed their strong support for the Navajo people. Now, just six months later, proceeds from this popular bottle are directly impacting Navajo Nation residents. The Nalgene Water Fund recently donated $14,500 to Dig Deep, a human rights nonprofit serving the 2.2 million+ Americans without sinks, bathtubs, or toilets. The money will specifically go to the Navajo Water Project, a community-managed utility alternative that brings hot and cold running water to hundreds of Navajo homes across three states.

“I am thrilled that my bottle design for Nalgene could reach so many people around the Country and now directly help so many of my people and their daily struggles with access to water.”

— Jaden Redhair

Sadly, even in modern times and during the devastating effects of Covid-19, 1/3 of Navajo families must haul water home every day. Incredibly, they are 67 times more likely than other Americans to live without running water or a toilet.

With demand for water ever increasing among America’s largest indigenous tribe, The Navajo Water Project is a critical resource making water deliveries that also create meaningful, high-paying jobs, many with benefits like 100% employer-paid health coverage. Nalgene’s donation will specifically benefit:

Operations & Maintenance – The costs of fuel, annual truck servicing, registration, and miscellaneous vehicle repairs.
Equitable Pay for Certified Water Truck Drivers – Nalgene applauds DIGDEEP’s commitment to pay a fair wage to all Navajo Nation employees. Its donation will support these efforts and CDL training for Navajo technicians to earn licensing to expand the service route.
Expanded Safety Protocols – As DIGDEEP continues to expand its service route, the donated funds may also support expanded safety policies and procedures.

Nalgene’s commitment to combat the Navajo Nation water crisis also included a $30,000 donation made in 2020 to fund infrastructure and supplies to create sustainable long-term solutions:

$15,000 to The Community Outreach & Patient Empowerment (COPE) Program, a Native-led community-based organization, to install six water filling stations across Navajo Nation, a notoriously rural area.
COPE also distributed 90 much needed Nalgene Carboys, 13 gallons reusable containers so Navajo residents can easily transport water from the refill stations. (Valued at $14,000.)

We Made It Simple… Michelle + Kenya Made It Theirs

Nalgene Team — Tue, 15 Jun 2021 12:00:00 +0000

We Made It Simple… Michelle + Kenya Made It Theirs.

Q: In 3-4 sentences please introduce yourselves and give a short bio of who you are.
A: The Outdoor Journal Tour was founded by Kenya and Michelle Jackson-Saulters. A self-proclaimed, “Live, Laugh, Love” girl Michelle is an army brat whose family now resides in Wiesbaden, Germany. Michelle loves everything “outdoorsy,” from camping to kayaking and climbing. If it’s outside and involves a challenge, she’s into it. Kenya, on the other hand, isn’t a huge fan of the whole, “sleep outdoors thing,” She enjoys the outdoors via summer concerts, having drinks on patios, journaling, and taking short walks in the neighborhood. The consummate Aquarius, Kenya brings the mindfulness component to The Outdoor Journal Tour. She enjoys writing, doing research on stars and galaxies, and watching Portuguese dramas on Netflix.

Q: You founded The Outdoor Journal Tour and the #wehiketoheal movement, how would you describe your mission?
A: The Outdoor Journal Tour is a hybrid health organization that combines the healing tenets of outdoor activity with mindful meditation and introspective journaling. Our mission is to create a safe and sacred place for women to reconnect with themselves, each other, and Mother Nature.

Michelle loves everything “outdoorsy,” from camping to kayaking and climbing.

How can people get involved with The Outdoor Journal Tour?

The easiest way to stay abreast of our events, challenges, and new merchandise is to join our mailing list and follow us on Instagram. Our Instagram community is our largest community, but our mailing list is where we share important updates, and blog about our personal lives and experiences outdoors.

Get Involved!

Q: What are some of the benefits of hiking, journaling, and meditating?
A: Outdoor activity has long been linked to stress reduction as well as improving overall mental well-being. Journaling and mediation have similar benefits. Journaling has been proven to help strengthen communication skills, and aid in both emotional and psychological healing. Meditation can also be a means to help reduce stress, increase self-awareness, and reduce anxiety. When all three of these methods are put together, they become a form of self-care cocktail for healing, connection, and personal development.

Q: How do you find a balance between work and your personal life?
A: It can be tough, especially since quarantine. Now, our phones, computers, and work notebooks are never out of arm’s reach. And we often find ourselves starting work earlier and ending it later than we did before. However, we made a commitment to pause for at least 2 hours a day to do something together. That usually includes sharing a meal, watching a movie on the couch, or maybe coloring on our iPad. For individual self-care, Michelle likes to take evening walks and Kenya enjoys training at her gym.

Q: How does Nalgene make your life simpler?
A: Water is essential, especially when you live in a hot and humid climate like Georgia. Michelle and I typically carry the wide-mouth 32-ounce bottle during events and day hikes. It provides us with the perfect amount of water to stay hydrated from start to finish. Plus, its ability to clip on our backpacks makes it easy to carry. Of course, we also love the adhesive surface that allows us to display all of our cool stickers from ours and other organizations we love and support. The stickers usually serve as a conversation piece/icebreaker for the women who join us at our events. It’s not uncommon for them to pull out their Nalgene bottles and give us a little sticker tour of their own.

Nalgene Outdoor and Jill & Ally Partner on Limited Edition “Tell Me Everything” Bottle

Nalgene Team — Thu, 03 Jun 2021 12:00:00 +0000

Nalgene Outdoor and Jill & Ally Partner on Limited Edition “Tell Me Everything” Bottle

A portion of sales benefits The Fresh Air Fund, a youth-development organization that serves children from New York City’s underserved communities.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (June 3, 2021) – Today, Nalgene announces a partnership with Jill & Ally, the ”give back” fashion brand of TV personality, entrepreneur, and best-selling author, Jill Zarin, and her daughter Allyson Shapiro, that will benefit The Fresh Air Fund, an organization that provides free summer experiences to children from New York City’s underserved communities.

Jill & Ally worked with Nalgene to design the “Tell Me Everything” bottle, a limited-edition 32-ounce, raspberry-colored Nalgene wide-mouth with a teal cap. Adorned with stars and a nature-inspired logo, the bottle’s design honors the camp tradition of reconnecting after months apart – or this summer, after years apart. This playful bottle inspires kids and adults to make up for lost time and come together at camp.

Part of a specially curated camp-inspired collection including clothing and accessories dropping at the end of June, this limited-edition Nalgene bottle retails for $25.00 on JillandAlly.com. Ten percent of each sale will benefit The Fresh Air Fund, to which Jill & Ally are also donating their popular fashion tie-dye masks ($20,000 value).

“Summer camp and Nalgene are like peanut butter and jelly,”

Elissa McGee, general manager, Nalgene Outdoor.

“As the bottle loved for its ‘blank canvas,’ Nalgene is thrilled to partner with Jill & Ally on the ‘Tell Me Everything’ design. It’s whimsical, give-back approach appeals to today’s kids and their parents, many who fondly remember toting a Nalgene to camp back in the 1980s!”

“We’re a give-back brand and so is Nalgene,” added Jill Zarin, co-founder of Jill & Ally. “When we first started making masks, we focused on the health care workers. Now that there is a vaccine, kids can look forward to a more normal summer, and we want to help ensure that as many Fresh Air Fund kids as possible get to experience camp and your purchase will help make that possible.”

All Nalgene bottles are made in the USA of BPA- and BPS- free materials. Truly made for life, the bottles are leak-proof, durable, and dishwasher safe.

How will you get ready for camp and all things summer?
