Miranda, Rainer, Kyle, Chelsea and Andrew - very special pollitos! This brings back such warm memories of adventuring together. And what great timing- I’m on my way back to Honduras this Thursday, and I can’t wait to share this with WWB Team Honduras and as many Water Women as we can find! You entered so beautifully and humbly into the world of our Water Women. A heartful THANKS to and for all of you. And Miranda - thanks especially for lending your voice and your whole self to Water Women - that makes you one of us! We love you all!
Gracias por todo, Hermana Larraine, y gracias Miranda (y su equipo) por compartir esta historia. I already own a Sawyer squeeze, so instead of buying another, I just went and donated directly, and encourage everyone who can to do the same. El amor salvará al mundo!
As a honduran, I want to thank firstly sister Larraine for helping underprivileged people in my country. Secondly to SAWYER, for providing the means to improve people’s lives here, and lastly to you Miranda, for pointing me in a direction (previously unknown to me) in which I can also help. I am an REI member, and on my next trip to the USA, I’ll make sure to buy some filters to try and replicate sister’s Larraine work.
I'm not crying, you're crying! No, wait, we're BOTH crying! This touches my public health heart in so many ways. I especially love that, while of course Sawyer plays a critical role in this and should be recognized (will be ordering them for my home emergency kit and bugout bag STAT) you kept the focus on the Honduran woman without whom the filters would just be so much plastic trash. Too many times corporations and organization parachute in like great white saviors and fail to make the connections needed to make their donations and programs meaningful and successful--so again, Kudos to Sawyer, BUT yes, Miranda, you nailed it, it is the women who take on the responsibility for filtering water not just for their own but for other households and for training other water women that actually make the program work. Thank you for recognizing and highlighting that. Going to go sob in a corner now...
I went out and bought a Sawyer after I heard them on The Outdoor Evolution podcast. They mentioned how they'd donated filters to Canadian First Nations reserves that had boil water advisories for over 20 years. The Canadian government keeps promising they'll get treatment plants built (or fix the broken ones) and they just never get around to it. So Sawyer stepped up and gave them filters. Many thanks to Sawyer for everything they do around the world, and even right here in North America, to give people clean water to drink. And for all of us backpackers who have the privilege to buy them, so we also have clean water while we're out on trail. Thank you, Miranda and crew, ❤ for showing us this. And for showing us just how many times we should be backflushing our filters! 😲
Two SASR (Australian Special Forces) and a handful of UNHCR workers I'm friends with all use the Sawyer Squeeze or the Katadyn Vario, and they advise against every other water filter brand out there - That should tell you all you need to know about Sawyer and Katadyn and their 'competition' (if you can even call them that).
That's great to hear. The Canadian government's lack of response to giving our first nation clean drinking water is inexcusable. I have a larger capacity filter for our family's backpacking but I will buy a Sawyer as backup for our day hikes.
I was deciding on my first backpacking water filter a few months ago. I seen a similar video from another RUclipsr Dan Becker in Africa. Bought a Sawyer squeeze the next day. We definitely take clean water for granted here in the USA. We literally poop in purified water. I try and remember that every time I’m having a bad day.
The common thread that runs through all of this, from the water women to The development and use of the Sawyer filter to the production of your wonderful videos, is EDUCATION. None of this would be possible without education. Live to learn and teach.
I love that tip about banging the filter on your palm. It makes a huge difference. I have a relatively new filter that I have taken on a handful of trips. I actually used it this morning on a slightly longer day hike and hadn't cleaned it yet after getting home. The water I filtered on the trail this morning was from a nice clear pool of water in a creek. I back flushed it once and got a little grime, but it went clear relatively quick. I tapped a few times and back flushed again. It was worse than the first back flush. There was definitely gunk and grime in my filter from previous trips. This is a game changer. Thanks!
When you went into Maria's home to do the GIS survey - I kinda lost it. When she went in to tearfully say goodbye to all the people in her home and she made a point to hug the man behind the camera ; . ; that would be so overwhelming to have so many people in your home, asking you questions and filming you, she was so gracious and kind and open. Truly remarkable.
I realize that this is all a sacrifice to the gods of algorithm with the title of the video being least informative and most marketing-like, but I wish it could still convey a bit more what the video is about. 95% of the reason I clicked on it was suspiciously long duration (knowing Miranda videos), and I'd be sad if I had missed it only because of the title that has 'BUY' in it and not a clue as to what an important and pivotal initiative it is REALLY about. All that being said, a great video and tremendous work that they are doing and you guys did to highlight it, spreading awareness. Cheerios
I have known Sr Loraine for 35-40 years since she taught my children here in Western Ky. We here have supported Sr ever since she started Warter Women. That has been our Lenten Alms giving project to help provide clean water to those in need. Sr Lorine has been a tremendous person of service to those in need.
Sawyers PR team is doing a great job sharing the work they do. Not a knock at all, loved watching this video and Dan Beckers. When I visit my family in Brasil, those office water dispensers are in almost every home. Never thought about buying Sawyer filters so they don't need to keep buying water. Will definitely be bringing a bunch in my luggage next trip.
Same here. I have family in Mexico who drinks the tap water because they can’t afford the filtered water. I need to figure out how I can make a bucket for em like this so they can filter their own
Thank You Miranda, Loved this segment, it's not just about women helping other women; it's all about people helping other people to the basic human right of clean drinking water! We are in the process of selecting a water filter for backpacking, Sawyer's work in these Latin American countries (and elsewhere) just sold us on Sawyer filters.
Great video. My big takeaways are, water is a human right and being able to buy a new filter when I don't take care of the old one is a privilege. The visual for the impact of the cleaning process was fantastic. It's easy to say "clean your filter" but seeing the process combined with the proof of how long the filter can last if you just take care of it was fantastic.
This made me mildly tear up, haha. This is awesome work, "Water with Blessings" and Sawyer! How wonderful to help provide clean water for people who need it. For all those people here saying this is just an ad and Sawyer is pushing its products, so what if it is? The product works great, and they're doing great things for many different communities. How can that be a bad thing? I like knowing that companies I support do good with their profits.
36:29 I just watched your entire video and I had tears in my eyes. I own a Sawyer Water Filter but haven’t used it “for real” yet. I mainly got it for emergencies. However, I’m recovering from an ankle replacement surgery and I love to hike so I’m going to use it on the trail. But that’s not the most amazing thing. Just this morning a group from Knoxville, TN (where I live) left on a mission trip to Honduras. They will be work with those struggling with addiction in communities and places of incarceration. I would have been on that trip except for my surgery. I can’t wait to tell them about the “Water Women” and share your video. Thank you for posting this and I’m forever a fan of “Sawyer”!! “May you be richly blessed for your care and compassion. May you feel God’s love in return like the Water Women felt as they received the filters!! In Jesus’s Holy name, Amen.” 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏✝️
31:22 This is an incredible documentary. A must see! The Sawyer filtration company is doing such a commendable job providing a much needed resource to so many families in need of clean, potable water. And I even learned a few things about maintaining my own water filter. Thanks!
Bravo! Thanks for promoting the concept of clean water in poorer countries. I have been involved in promoting water projects through Church World Service. In 2006 and again in 2007 we got to visit water projects throughout Kenya and also in Uganda. It was amazing how a simple well or other water project which provides clean water can totally transform a community. There are the obvious health benefits, but also it frees people in many ways, especially the women and girls. They have the responsibility of getting water and can end up walking miles every day to fetch water. With a local clean water supply, much time is freed up for other activities and girls get to stay in school longer. God bless you for doing this video.
What a fantastic documentary about these water women of Honduras. Congratulations to the whole team, the nun and all the women who have cared for their community. I was just about to buy my filter and now, I feel incredibly privileged to be able to do that. Thank you, Sawyer!
Thank you so much for not only sharing about this, but for the opportunity to team up and sponsor Water Women! Our first donation has been sent and I can't wait to continue helping these women, these communities, this mission!
Hey Miranda Met you at trail days Said I knew you from youtube but forgot your name.Well I dont think I will ever forget your name after watching this video.This really blew me away, not what I was expecting.You've brought awesome to a whole other level
stunning use of your channel! Grateful to learn a plastics product can be used continuously without filling up the landfills and provide fresh clean water for years. What a wonderful world!
This is an extraordinary video! I have been aware in the past that Sawyer does a lot to benefit others with clean water but I had no idea of the scale and this was just at one country. I was also astonished to see how long these filters last with proper care. I watch lots of long-course hikers and many will get several new ones along the AT or PCT or others. It's great to know the right way to care for them!
Water is life. Women are more in touch with water because we create life. So water women have a sacred duty. They help many people. It was a wonderful video to see water women of other cultures! Thanks for this. Sharing your vid with my friends!
This is an amazing video. So cool to see how they make the Sawyer filters last so long and educating the world about clean water. Most people take for granted having clean water. Clean water is a healthy life. Love the Sawyer filters.
Wow... Im just feeling very hunbled and surprised about the contet of this video! Is SO much better than a "at home, experienced talk". This way of sharing the important knowledge sticks so well in my head cuz of these stories. I'm very humbled by it ❣️ Great job "Miranda Goes Outside" team 🥳🙏
Fantastic video! I went to Honduras with my mom (a nurse) and Doctors Without Borders in 2008. Since I don't have medical training, I mostly helped mix concrete out in the villages for properly ventilated cooking stoves to go in the homes. I'm so grateful for all the various groups providing aid to the amazing people of Honduras!
Another great video about the Sawyer bucket program. I first saw the video put out by @danbecker. What I liked about yours, Miranda, was the in-depth look at the process at getting the filters to communities and then educating the water women. I am heading to a remote area of Nicaragua and want to bring this program to that community. I believe Sawyer and Amparo International are in communication. This is such an important humanitarian mission. I’ll be sharing the link of this video with the founder of Amparo. Thank you for sharing your experience.
I cried so much... I can't even explain why. I'm really grateful for the effort put into this video and for the information on back flushing our water filters to extend their lives. Thank you!!
My husband and I did a Safe Water Sabbatical. I did a small fundraiser to buy 15 bucket filters and gave them to families and villages as we traveled. Your video was absolutely fantastic! It motivates me as a hiker to again give back. I was not a hiker at the time but I am now and just this weekend realized how blessed we are to filter stream water and what a privilege it is to have these filters. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Hugely important video. Sawyer is doing great work around the world. I feel privileged to be able to use thier filters in my hobby hiking. Good job getting the word out, not just about they're doing, but also in how impasto it is.
Great video. I hiked in La Tigra National Park back in 1999 when our family our family volunteered to build housing with Church World Service. I am also a hydrologist and I took a simple water filter which screwed on as a cap for a water bottle. The group thought I was crazy, but I wanted to test my filter in less than pristine conditions (not like our Colorado mountain streams). I drank from taps, from rivers, from wells, while the rest of the group drank only bottled water. I was fine.
Amazing video that explains the Water With Blessings mission so well. Thanks to Miranda and her team and Sawyer for making this very educational and important video!
Not me crying with you. This was a wonderful break from your normal content, I loved every second of this and got emotional a lot. xoxo thank you for what you do, huge thanks to the Water Women and the greatest blessings to them all.
Thank you Miranda, you really opened my eyes to the great need of clean drinking water in the world. Thanks to Sawyer and to you and to your team. You are a light in the world❤
What a powerful video - just donated $100 in the name of Miranda Goes Outside. Many thanks for showing the great work of Sawyer and the impact of clean water.
Wow this was an awesome video. Loved it. Coming from a Native American reservation where water is still an issue. It is nice to see the great strides in water systems. Thanks for sharing. Viva water women!!
I am a firm believer in Sawyer. This is a great video. Too many have no idea how lucky we are to have clean, fresh and safe water. Very touching celebration. You always have to watch out when visiting these areas because too often end up leaving all you stuff behind, including your heart for them, because there is such a need. Awesome that the daughters of one of the ladies have received a good education too. Miranda is so tender hearted. Literally this is saving people's lives. Sawyer should be proud of their efforts.
Way to make me tear up. One of your best yet. It's always amazing how the simple things we take for granted can have such huge impacts in other places. Thanks for reminding us of our shared humanity.
This is the best video y'all have ever done! It is definitely a privilege to have clean drinking water here in the US- something not a lot of people think about. Please do more of these videos! Who's cutting onions?... 💙
I have known for many many years what Sawyer filters do to help people out. This is one of the reasons why I buy this filter and the other reason is they are awesome. The only reason I have to replace my filters are in an usual cold spell came in and I wake up in the morning and everything is frozen solid, including my filter, which is never a good thing. I guess that’s one thing that people from Honduras don’t have to worry about.
So grateful and thankful for this video. 1000s of lives will be saved from this! Miranda, I’m so proud of this!!
And her title didn’t make it seem like Sawyer is bad! Imagine that.
Sawyer is "The Truth."
Blessings to all who bring these basic essentials to humanity.
Bayard Rustin said, "To be afraid is to act is if the truth were not true."
Sawyer ministry, "..do not be not afraid."
@Dan Becker
your Sawyer video also highlighted how you learned The Truth with Sawyer Ministry.
Welcome the 'prodigal son' when he turns around.
Dan Becker moment
Your Sawyer video was also incredible Dan

Sister Lorraine may the LORD continue to bless you and the Water Women as you continue HIS WORK

I’m not crying, it’s just clean sanitized water on my face.
I thought I was gonna watch a gear video. Not an emotional story about how clean drinking water changed so many lives 🥹 beautiful.
I'm not crying, you're crying! No, wait, we're BOTH crying! This touches my public health heart in so many ways.

That comment about feeling gratitude each time we drink water was powerful.
I went out and bought a Sawyer after I heard them on The Outdoor Evolution podcast.

The Canadian government keeps promising they'll get treatment plants built (or fix the broken ones) and they just never get around to it. So Sawyer stepped up and gave them filters.

Our First Nations communities are so often forgotten and I’m so glad to know that they are being seen and heard by Sawyer 💛
@@Funkteon I also use a Versa Hydroblu. Haven't got sick ever. It's quite good.
That's great to hear. The Canadian government's lack of response to giving our first nation clean drinking water is inexcusable. I have a larger capacity filter for our family's backpacking but I will buy a Sawyer as backup for our day hikes.
Not strictly a Canadian problem. Ask the people in Flint, Michgan.
I was deciding on my first backpacking water filter a few months ago. I seen a similar video from another RUclipsr Dan Becker in Africa. Bought a Sawyer squeeze the next day. We definitely take clean water for granted here in the USA. We literally poop in purified water. I try and remember that every time I’m having a bad day.
The drone footage of all the water women getting off the bus got me choked up
The common thread that runs through all of this, from the water women to The development and use of the Sawyer filter to the production of your wonderful videos, is EDUCATION. None of this would be possible without education. Live to learn and teach.
Yes!

"wow all of these air plants! All the hipsters in Seattle would lose their sh!t" I'm fricken DEAD I literally spit my water out
Loved this! I am a Junior high teacher and I can’t wait to show this video to my students about how clean water is accessed around the world!
I'm 29. I've been on RUclips almost every day since around 2007. This is one the most uplifting videos I have ever watched. Thank you Miranda & Co!
Backflushed my Sawyer Mini today, def heading back down to the kitchen to give it a good tap now
I love how RUclipsrs are starting to help Sawyer spread their mission
I realize that this is all a sacrifice to the gods of algorithm with the title of the video being least informative and most marketing-like, but I wish it could still convey a bit more what the video is about. 95% of the reason I clicked on it was suspiciously long duration (knowing Miranda videos), and I'd be sad if I had missed it only because of the title that has 'BUY' in it and not a clue as to what an important and pivotal initiative it is REALLY about.

100% agreed! Knowing we can make it last a decade was a game-changer. Further proof of what Sawyer is doing is life-changing!
I never thought that what is gear to me is lifesaving for many. Thank you for this

I'm one minute in and already blown away. Welp i guess i'll be late for work because i'm watching this for next 36 minutes

One more reason why I will continue recommending and buying Sawyer squeeze filters
Fantastic video! I went to Honduras with my mom (a nurse) and Doctors Without Borders in 2008. Since I don't have medical training, I mostly helped mix concrete out in the villages for properly ventilated cooking stoves to go in the homes. I'm so grateful for all the various groups providing aid to the amazing people of Honduras!

ohhh wowww that's just sooo great!! I hope you'll come back with movies and memories for us all!
I OWN TWO SAWYER WATER FILTERS. HAVE NOT USED THEM YET. BUT I AM PREPARED IF AND WHEN I NEED THEM.
I am a GIS technician and I loved hearing that it is being used in this way to help track the clean water initiative.
Thanks Miranda 😊
The people of Acapulco who were devastated by hurricane Otis could sure use these filters. Clean water is what so many are asking for right now.
Had no idea y'all were gonna make me cry when I first clicked on this ❤️
I cried so much... I can't even explain why. I'm really grateful for the effort put into this video and for the information on back flushing our water filters to extend their lives. Thank you!!

Sawyer is doing great work all over the world. Thanks for sharing their story.
I had no idea Sawyer was doing such amazing humanitarian work! Thanks for making this incredible video!
I have 4 and will buy more now.
Thank you, Sawyer, for being a staple in water purification...
Hugely important video. Sawyer is doing great work around the world. I feel privileged to be able to use thier filters in my hobby hiking. Good job getting the word out, not just about they're doing, but also in how impasto it is.
That is what I use to filter water with too. Really does seem the best.
Great video. I hiked in La Tigra National Park back in 1999 when our family our family volunteered to build housing with Church World Service. I am also a hydrologist and I took a simple water filter which screwed on as a cap for a water bottle. The group thought I was crazy, but I wanted to test my filter in less than pristine conditions (not like our Colorado mountain streams). I drank from taps, from rivers, from wells, while the rest of the group drank only bottled water. I was fine.
Wow, you have just gone from my favourite backpacking/trail youtuber to my favourite caring human being. I wasn't expecting that, damn...
Beautiful video!! Thank you for sharing this information. Blessings to all, may all humans have the right to clean water.
Such an inspiring video and a great example of the private sector working hand in hand with local communities. ❤
Amazing video that explains the Water With Blessings mission so well. Thanks to Miranda and her team and Sawyer for making this very educational and important video!
What an inspiring video! I am going to make my wife and both my boys watch your video. Thank you for sharing this story with us.
I love this video! Best I've seen so far!
Not me crying with you. This was a wonderful break from your normal content, I loved every second of this and got emotional a lot. xoxo thank you for what you do, huge thanks to the Water Women and the greatest blessings to them all.
Thank you Miranda, you really opened my eyes to the great need of clean drinking water in the world. Thanks to Sawyer and to you and to your team. You are a light in the world❤
Worth the wait! :) Hope you guys are enjoying your new adventures and this new chapter of Miranda in the- sorry! Miranda goes outside! ❤🎉
What a powerful video - just donated $100 in the name of Miranda Goes Outside. Many thanks for showing the great work of Sawyer and the impact of clean water.
Awesome job! This is You Tube at its frugin best!!!! Thank you team!
Many thumbs up! Hats off to Sawyer water filter for helping people around the world get clean water to drink!
Wow this was an awesome video. Loved it. Coming from a Native American reservation where water is still an issue. It is nice to see the great strides in water systems. Thanks for sharing. Viva water women!!
I am a firm believer in Sawyer. This is a great video. Too many have no idea how lucky we are to have clean, fresh and safe water. Very touching celebration. You always have to watch out when visiting these areas because too often end up leaving all you stuff behind, including your heart for them, because there is such a need. Awesome that the daughters of one of the ladies have received a good education too. Miranda is so tender hearted. Literally this is saving people's lives. Sawyer should be proud of their efforts.
Didn't think I'd be crying AND become and even more die hard Sawyer supporter.
What a beautiful program!
Wonderful Video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you this is amazing!!
Thank you for sharing your feelings, Miranda. Gives me a little bit of hope for humanity.
I stand by the fact that this is easily one of the best channels on this platform, and this episode solidifies that.
Good video perhaps one of the best ❤
Great addition to your platform.
wow. at times I've given harsh feedback on your channel... but this was a really good, informative video.
Great Work Miranda
Love this! Also, agreed, don’t ever eat the fruit 😅 I did that in rural Uganda and I paid for it for days
Great report on Sawyer's program and the Water With Blessings outreach. The innocent and child like Miranda.
I'm glad to see this is how you are using this channel and this platform. I came for the backpacking tips, I stay to donate to Water with Blessings.
Way to make me tear up. One of your best yet. It's always amazing how the simple things we take for granted can have such huge impacts in other places. Thanks for reminding us of our shared humanity.
This is the best video y'all have ever done! It is definitely a privilege to have clean drinking water here in the US- something not a lot of people think about. Please do more of these videos! Who's cutting onions?... 💙
Thanks!
THANK YOU!!!
very beautiful story. A lesson all of our families should know. Thank you Miranda
I have known for many many years what Sawyer filters do to help people out. This is one of the reasons why I buy this filter and the other reason is they are awesome. The only reason I have to replace my filters are in an usual cold spell came in and I wake up in the morning and everything is frozen solid, including my filter, which is never a good thing. I guess that’s one thing that people from Honduras don’t have to worry about.
Amazing video! My ❤ is full.
