THE FACTS SAY IT ALL ...

Approximately 1.8 million children die every year as a result of diseases caused by unclean water and poor sanitation. This amounts to around 4,000 child deaths each day...one child every 20 seconds. (UN)

Nearly half of the world's children live in poverty invisible to most of us. (UNICEF)

Almost one billion people in the world lack access to safe drinking water, that's one out of every eight of us (WHO/UNICEF)

Water-related diseases caused by unsafe drinking water and inadequate sanitation remain humanity's most serious public health thread, causing 80% of sickness in developing countries (WHO)

At any given time, half the population of the developing world is suffering from one or more of the main diseases associated with unsafe water and santitation. (UN)

Millions of women and children in the world spend many hours every day collecting water from miles away, most from polluted sources because they simply have no other choice. (UN)

Less than 1% of the world's fresh water (or abou ,007% of all water on earth) is readily accessible for direct human use. 

The average North American uses more than 100 gallons of water each day, but the average person in the developing world uses less than three. (UN)


 

GIVE HOPE ... GIVE WATER ... GIVE LIFE.

Water is life’s most basic need, it sustains life, yet so many people throughout the world go without this necessary part of life. Today, more than 1 BILLION people lack access to clean drinking water. And over 2 BILLION people do not have access to proper sanitation. In addition, an estimated 25,000 people die every day from the lack of clean water and proper sanitation! That is one person every 3.45 seconds!

Unclean water affects every part of a person… from children not being able to attend school, to parents not being able to maintain a steady job, to high medical costs due to disease. Water is the sustaining factor in life and without it, families in developing countries never have the opportunity to enhance their status of life. For around 1/6th of the world’s population, this tragedy is all too common.
