The Air Purification Association is an unincorporated nonprofit association built on one belief: everyone deserves clean indoor air, in every room they walk into.
As an unincorporated nonprofit association, we dedicate our efforts entirely to cleaner indoor environments, collecting, refurbishing and redistributing professional grade air filtration to the spaces that need it most.
To measurably improve indoor air quality in homes, classrooms, workshops and community spaces by putting effective filtration directly into the hands of the people who use those rooms every day.
We accept donated and surplus equipment, make sure it works well, and match each unit to the environment it serves best, from HEPA home purifiers to DIY box fan kits.
Beyond equipment, we channel funds to smaller, hyper local nonprofits, multiplying our impact through organizations already trusted in their neighborhoods.
The milestones that took us from a single donated unit to clean air at scale.
Two founders, frustrated by poor air in local classrooms and workshops, start collecting and refurbishing surplus air purifiers to give away.
The first HEPA purifiers and DIY box fan kits land in homes and community rooms, proving that simple, well matched equipment makes an immediate difference.
High CFM portable systems and tabletop dust collectors expand our reach into woodshops and schools, sharply increasing the volume of air processed.
We begin redistributing funds, ultimately 1,400 dollars across 18 smaller local nonprofits, to amplify clean air work already happening on the ground.
Our deployed systems have now processed 15.83 billion cubic feet of indoor air, and we are just getting started.
