WHY WATER?
Every day in rural communities throughout Africa, millions of people suffer from a lack of access to clean, safe water. For children it’s a burden that traps them in poverty.
Water collection forces women and girls to sacrifice their time and health. Girls under the age of 15 are twice as likely as boys to be the family member responsible for fetching water.
Each day, they spend hours, multiple times per day walking to distant rivers and ponds to find water. Even when they are sick, young girls and women have to make the physically demanding walk everyday. This life robs them of time to learn, time to be a kid, time to earn an income, time to rest, and spend with family.
The benefits of clean and safe water are:
HEALTH – Improves the health of families and children.
EDUCATION – Keeps children in school to enhance their education and lives and gives hope to their future.
WOMEN EMPOWERMENT – able to improve their homes, start a business get their lives back.
ECONOMIC POTENTIAL – giving families more time to pursue education and work opportunities which helps break the cycle of poverty.
Your support will make that true in the lives of people every day, as they are able to rely on safe water through our Clean Water Project.
