Tippy Tap - Save water, save lives

One of our new training classes in Haiti for 2015 will be about Tippy Taps. We will have an overview of the importance of hand hygiene and a demonstration of how to build and use these low-tech, low cost, low water usage hand washing devices. Regular hand washing is important in reducing the spread of many diseases and Tippy Taps have been used successfully, particularly in India.

Here is a Youtube video on building and using a Tippy Tap:
