There are several options from the same company that makes the 'Lifestraw'. They have a LifeSaver Bottle, Gerry Can, and even a large scale filter system for a small village. The founder's TED talk was pretty convincing. In situations like this, he pointed out that the survivors often have most of what they need, just not in a form that they can use it. Water is abundant, but not clean water. Rather than waste space on airplanes dropping bottled water, drop LifeSaver water filters and allow more space for other supplies that are desperately needed.
