Deliver water tankers & provide a family with 1-year worth of water supply today
663 million people in the world live without clean water. For people in developing countries, clean water can change everything.
The majority live in isolated rural areas and spend hours every day walking to collect water for their family. Not only does walking for water keep kids out of school or take up time that parents could be used to earn money, but the water often carries diseases that can make everyone sick. But access to clean water means education, income, and health - especially for women and kids. Clean water changes everything.
Access to clean water is perhaps the single most powerful tool for sparking economic growth that humanity has ever known.
We work with local experts and community members to find the best sustainable solution in each place where we work, whether it’s a well, a piped system, a BioSand Filter, or a system for harvesting rainwater. And with every water point we fund, our partners coordinate sanitation and hygiene training, and establish a local committee to help keep water flowing for years to come. Every $1 invested in clean water can yield $4–$12 in economic returns. It’s a solid investment.
