Disaster Relief Trailer for South Florida

One down.  One to go.

When we took over Altitude Water in June one of our mission statements was to prove to the Disaster Community that our trailers fill a significant need in how Disaster Relief is handled.  We had previously built a disaster relief trailer and knew this piece of equipment would be an important aspect of our growth and the education on the abilities of our products.

It’s a difficult line.  We want everyone to be safe and have access to pure drinking water.  We don’t want disasters (Even though it is good for business-that’s a truth that’s tough to say but it is reality.  There is more interest in our products when a disaster hits.  We are reactionary by nature).  The fact is throughout history it is proven disasters will come.  Are we going to be prepared for it?

With the Maui trailer fully funded, it’s time to prepare on our home and educate our neighbors.

Altitude Water has compiled a very powerful, focused, and eclectic group of like-minded people to fund a Disaster Relief Trailer for South Florida.  Each partner brings a unique skill set and target market to get behind a single message. “We need to be prepared for the next disaster and bring access to pure water for our community. How do people not know this technology exists to secure their water source?”.

See effective charity is not just providing basic needs during a difficult time.  Effective charity meets a short-term need and fixes a long term problem.  Our team is embedded and active in our community bringing knowledge to numerous different visions.  But all have come together to agree that we need access to pure water during disasters and given the current world we live in.

Here is the team:

  1. Mind Army- This Nonprofit is dedicated to our ability to the pursuit of happiness and the founder Zappy Zappolin believes pure water is an integral part of that pursuit. Mind Army’s work has been featured recently in Forbes, and People Magazine, on Good Morning America, VICE, and TMZ.

Zappy has recruited numerous Companies and individuals to assist in this pursuit of providing a Disaster Relief Trailer for the people of South Florida so even in difficult situations they can have access to clean water

  1. SQZD Juice- This all-natural non-pasteurized juice bottler in Boynton Beach and now Delray is partnering with Altitude Water to bring bottling to Delray but also to set up programs to help fund the Disaster Relief Trailer. They have rallied their existing customers as well as new prospects of purchasing water with a portion of the proceeds going to support the trailer.
  2. Noah’s Arc They are committed to use their resources and experience from the Maui relief effort to help support the team in South Florida with logistics and contacts.
  3. ELVT Movement- This motivated team not only provides classes and retreats to strengthen the physical and spiritual aspects of our journey. They are committed to supporting the message through events and social media awareness.

They are numerous other business and like- minded-individuals looking to become Water Warriors and join this team dedicated to making a difference in our community and the world.  Won’t you join us?

Disaster Relief Trailer for Maui

The People of MAUI Need Your Help

They need clean water

After dedicating 14 years to the Atmospheric Water Generator Business, we have witnessed countless disasters that could have been better mitigated if more people had access to our product. Preparedness is often preached, but it’s during a disaster that everyone realizes the urgency of our water generator machines. When calamity strikes, the phone never stops ringing with requests for our product.

While every disaster is different, the logistics of disaster response is an uphill battle. The current shipping crisis brought about by COVID-19 exacerbates an already tricky process. It’s especially frustrating for us when we see our product can be of tremendous help if it were already part of a community’s preparedness process. Last year after Hurricane Ian, we had machines readily available to support relief efforts, but all our partners’ humanitarian organizations were expelled from the relief zone for not having the proper permits. Despite having a solution, we were powerless in implementing it to help.

However, this year is different. When the wildfires broke out in Maui, our immediate concern was for Noah’s Arc Foundation, a partner organization with whom we have previously worked in Africa and Chicago. The family was vacationing on the island when the disaster struck, but thankfully everyone was safe. Cecilia and Paulo of Noah’s Arc immediately sprang into action to help.

Fortunately, we have boots on the ground with Noah’s Arc. We recently visited Maui and Oahu in January, met with State Senators, and introduced our product successfully to the people of Hawaii. We already had ongoing partnerships, including with the Na Mea Ike Ia Foundation, which has been active in Maui for 14 years.

The logistics of disaster response are challenging, but we have managed to raise funds, build the necessary machines and trailer, and are coordinating efforts to get them to the island to support first responders and rescue workers. We will provide regular updates on our website and be active on our social media pages, updating with daily pictures of our efforts.

With 14 years of experience, we’re confident that our beloved people of Lahaina will feel our contribution and the impact of our water generator machines.

Let’s see what 14 years of experience can do to help our beloved people of Lahaina.
