Multipure reminds Las Vegas nonprofits of free water filtration grants

Multipure is urging greater Las Vegas nonprofits and vulnerable families to apply for its Clean Water for Health In-Kind Donation Program ahead of the holiday season. The program provides free filtration systems, installation and replacement filters to eligible organizations and nominated families.

Why it matters: - Local nonprofits serving children, immunocompromised people and other vulnerable families can get drinking water filtration without using operating funds. - The program also reduces reliance on bottled water and the waste that comes with it. - The offer matters more as holiday-season demand increases for community services.

What happened: - Multipure, a Las Vegas-based water filtration company with more than 50 years in the industry, is promoting its Clean Water for Health In-Kind Donation Program through the Pure Foundation. - The program provides eligible Las Vegas nonprofits and vulnerable families with free drinking water systems, professional installation and lifelong replacement filters. - The company is encouraging qualified 501(c)(3) organizations to apply before the holiday season. - Applications are accepted on a rolling basis through the Pure Foundation application.

The details: - Qualified organizations can receive Multipure’s Aquaperform drinking water system for below-sink or countertop installation. - The Aquaperform uses solid carbon block technology. - The system is NSF-certified to reduce chlorine, PFAS, heavy metals, microplastics and particulate matter in tap water. - Participating organizations can install the systems in kitchens or common areas for staff, volunteers and clients. - Organizations can also nominate client families, especially those caring for immunocompromised individuals, for a free home filtration system and installation. - The Pure Foundation supplies annual replacement filters for the life of the unit. - Zachary Rice, president of Multipure, said the company wants nonprofit leaders to know the option is available so filtration does not have to come from a nonprofit’s operating budget.

Between the lines: - Multipure is framing the program as both a community-health effort and a cost-saving tool for nonprofits. - The push also reinforces the company’s long-running local presence and its connection to public-service groups in Las Vegas. - The focus on immunocompromised children suggests the program is aimed at facilities where water safety carries extra weight.

What's next: - The Pure Foundation will continue reviewing applications from qualified nonprofits in the greater Las Vegas area. - Eligible organizations can seek support for facilities or nominate families they serve. - Multipure is asking groups to apply before the holiday season begins.

The bottom line: - Multipure is offering free water systems, installation and ongoing filter support to help Las Vegas nonprofits protect families and stretch limited budgets.
