Las Vegas Water Filtration Company Puts Real-World Water Testing in Students’ Hands Across the Globe for the Smithsonian Science for Global Goals Water! Guide
LAS VEGAS, NV, UNITED STATES, March 18, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Multipure, a trusted leader in the water filtration industry for more than 50 years, has announced the donation of 100 drinking water test kits to support the development of the Smithsonian Science Education Center’s (SSEC) Water! Guide, part of the Smithsonian Science for Global Goals series.
The Water! Guide will be a free educational resource that encourages students ages 11 to 18 to think critically about water as the foundation for life on earth; not just where it comes from, but evaluating its safety, who has access to it, and how they can help protect it. The guide encourages, students to use hands-on activities to investigate water characteristics firsthand, conducting real tests, comparing and making sense of results, and collaborating on possible solutions for a sustainable future.
As part of the larger Smithsonian Science for Global Goals series, the Water! Guide will connect classroom learning to real issues happening in students’ own communities. The guide will be available free of charge, in multiple languages, to teachers and students around the world.
“At Multipure, clean water isn’t just our business, it’s our mission. We believe everyone should understand where their water comes from and how to evaluate its safety. By putting test kits directly in students’ hands, we hope to spark curiosity, build awareness, and inspire the next generation,” said Zachary Rice, President of Multipure.
The kits will be sent directly to teachers who volunteered to field test the Water! Guide into their classrooms and will equip students and educators with real-world tools to investigate water quality firsthand as part of their STEM lessons. Teachers from as far as Vietnam and Nigeria have already signed on, underscoring the global reach of the program. Multipure’s support ensures that teachers have one less barrier standing between their students and a hands-on learning experience.
The Water! guide will be one of more than a dozen community research guides in the Smithsonian Science for Global Goals series. To learn more, visit https://ssec.si.edu/global-goals.
