History & Development
The formation of Agua Munda and the development of the Condor Water Filter stemmed from the work of the Kumpi Mayu Foundation -- providing clean drinking water for underprivileged communities in Peru.
From the very beginning, the goal was to create lasting, adaptable filtration systems that served the specific needs of local partners. These experiences motivated the team to create a core line of products destined to help even more people gain access to clean water worldwide.
Kumpi Mayu Foundation draws inspiration from Wangari Maathai, a Kenyan environmental and political activist who founded the Green Belt Movement, an environmental non-governmental organization focused on the planting of trees, environmental conservation, and women's rights. In 2004 she became the first African woman to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. Wangari weaves a story of hope that is inspired by the tiny hummingbird who works tirelessly on behalf of all creatures.
