Water and Sanitation
$
Every day, thousands of children die from the effects of unsafe drinking water, poor sanitation, and a lack of basic hygiene. Far too many lives are lost from preventable water-related illnesses like diarrhea, pneumonia, typhoid, cholera, and dysentery. Your gift triples in impact to help prevent these deaths. To give water is to give life. Clean water can cut a community’s child mortality rate in half. It means food for families whose crops are failing due to drought. It saves livestock. It gives parents a powerful way to improve the health, hygiene, and well-being of their children, and enable them to reach their God-given potential. Your gift will multiply 3x in impact to bring safe, clean water to those who need it most. You’ll help build wells, treat contaminated water, and provide water storage containers to save fresh rainwater for later use. And, most importantly, your gift will help improve children’s health with sanitation systems that keep water sources clean. No other gift produces a more dramatic effect on life than clean water and sanitation. You can help wash away suffering by providing access to one of life’s most precious resources. Give now — for these children, every minute counts.
