Anselmo gets a filtron

Anselmo Galo, a malnourished three year old from Angel 3, received a filtron yesterday at his house. His mother saved up money for weeks to pay the small fee (in her case about $1.50), and now Anselmo and his siblings will have clean water. Anselmo often has parasites because of poor water quality, so this will greatly improve his, and his family's, health.

In total, around 20 filtrones were distributed yesterday, bringing the total for this round of distribution to over 200.
