La diferencia seria sustancial si la ayuda estubiera fuera de los parametros politicos, alli esta todo. Con la forma en que han sido atendidas las comunicades y como los medios de comunicacion cubren solo las areas beneficiadas el ciudadano comun de la Capital vive sin saber de las necesidades de nuestros connacionales en la Provincia. Lastima que todo tenga factura politica y no un perfil hunista, que realzaria cualquier esfuerzo por peque帽o que fuera.

We have slowly been helped from different organizations altough we will not be back on our feet until the bridges are built back up. PURIFIED WATER helped a lot during those times. a clear observation i have is that people preffered the water that came in a small bag pack and not the one in the bottles due to being easier to cross over overflown rivers into poor and uncommunicated communities

Answer 1
Lamentamos mucho el malentendido, nuestra intenci贸n era resaltar la importancia de establecer la potabilidad del agua antes de consumirla. Sabemos que existen distintos tipos de formas de filtrado y potabilizaci贸n y en estas circunstacias, lo importante es beber agua potable.
En cu谩nto a nuestra pol铆tica de responsabilidad social, tenemos el honor de informarle que desde la erupci贸n del Volc谩n de Pacaya, as铆 como durante la emergencia por las tormentas 脕gatha y Alex, la Fundaci贸n Castillo C贸rdoba mantiene la alimentaci贸n de distintos refugios, d贸nde miles de guatemaltecos reciben no solo agua de la mejor calidad, sino tres comidas diarias, contabilizando varios miles de raciones repartidas hasta ahora. Adem谩s, Agua Pura Salvavidas contribuye con el deporte ol铆mpico guatemalteco a trav茅s de su patrocinio a la Fundaci贸n Ol铆mpica Guatemalteca, adem谩s de apoyar al Fondo Unido y otros programas de incidencia en la comunidad.
Acerca de los distintos programas de la Fundaci贸n, puede documentarse en http://www.fundacioncastillocordova.org d贸nde podr谩 encontrar las cifras exactas del aporte a las comunidades.
Acerca de otros aportes de Agua Pura Salvavidas a la comunidad, le recomendamos recorrer las p谩ginas de medios locales,tales como Prensa Libre, Siglo XXI, El Peri贸dico, etc., TV, blogs,todas las cadenas de radio, etc. para obtener un reporte objetivo de la actividad que como guatemaltecos preocupados realizamos para mejorar la educaci贸n, la salud y el bienestar de nuestro pueblo.
Answer 2
We are very sorry for the unfortunate misunderstanding. Our intention was to highlight the need to filter water before its consumption. We know that there are several methods to filter drinking water and in these circumstances it is ideal to consume filtered drinking water. Regarding our policy of social responsibility, we are honored to inform you that since the Pacaya volcano's eruption, as well as during tropical storms Agatha and Alex, the Castillo C贸rdoba Foundation has provided not only quality water, but 3 daily meals, to the thousands of Guatemalans who have seeked different shelters. This constitutes several thousands of food helpings up to this day. Additionally, Agua Pura Salvavidas contributes to Guatemala's olympic sports through its sponsoring of the Guatemalan Olympic Foundation, aside from its support to United Fund and other community-oriented programs.
The exact data regarding the Foundation's programs, and its social contributions, can be located at http://fundacioncastillocordova.org Regarding Agua Pura Salvavidas's other social contributions, we urge you to browse through local media such as Prensa Libre, Siglo XXI, El Peri贸dico, TV, blogs, radio, etc., to gather an objective report towards the activities that we, as socially conscious Guatemalans, are enforcing to improve the education, health and welfare of our countrymen.

IT DOES MAKE A SIGNIFICANT DIFERENCE, IT IS A SHAME THAT BIG COMPANIES LIKE AGUA PURA SALVAVIDAS DID NOT HELP THE PEOPLE IN GUATEMALA, THIS COMPANYSPECIALLY BECAUSE THEY ARE AWARE OF HOW IMPORTANT PURIFIED WATER IS IN THIS DESASTERS......... AND KNOWING HOW CHEAP IS TO PRODUCE PURIFIED WATER......... GUATEMALANS THAT BELONG TO LOW CLASES IN OUR SOCIETY ARE A LOT MORE SOLIDARY WITH VICTIMS OF THIS DESASTERS THAN THE BIG COMPANIES THAT HAVE ALL THE MONEY OF THE WORLD TO HELP A LOT I JUST WISH ONE DAY THIS CAN CHANGE IN MY COUNTRY.
