Clean water changes everything.
Health
Diseases from dirty water kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war.
Time
In Africa alone, women spend 40 billion hours a year walking for water.
Education
Clean water helps keep kids in school, especially girls.
Women empowerment
Women are responsible for 72% of the water collected in Sub-Saharan Africa.
785 million people in the world live without clean water.
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 every day walking to collect water for their family. Not only does walking for water keep children out of school or take up time that parents could be using to earn money, but the water often carries diseases that can make everyone sick.
What are we?

Raising general awareness
Science clearly states that a human being can survive three weeks without food, but where water is concerned most people can’t go on 3-4 days without it! Dehydration sets in, and even if the person continues to breathe, they will go into shock and become vegetative. In other words, water is the primary necessity. Without it, a living being simply cannot survive. Yet, it is a horrific fact that there are billions of people around the world who do not have access to clean drinking water.
