that's nearly 1 in 10 people worldwide. or, twice the population of the United States. the majority live in isolated rural areas and spend hours a day walking to collect water, taking away income and educational opportunities, especially so for women and children.

IMPROVED
HEALTH
diseases from dirty water kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war. 43% of those deaths are children under five years old. less sickness also means better development, better learning abilities, better access to education, providing our future generations with better opportunities for a better life.

ACCESS TO

when children don't have to walk long distances to get water, they have more time to attend school and more energy to learn. this is especially important for girls, who most often collect water for the family.

Women are often responsible for collecting water. When a community gets safe access to water, women and girls can pursue skills outside of their traditional roles and start businesses, improve their homes, and take charge of their own futures.
