Tragically, nearly 1,000 children die each day from diarrhea caused by unsafe water and poor sanitation and hygiene practices.<\/p>\n<p>Child-focused sanitation and health educational materials featuring Raya and Elmo have been designed to reach children and families through media, schools, and community engagement programs.<\/p>\n<h2>Reaching children globally with life-saving lessons<\/h2>\n<p>The partnership has begun by focusing on rural communities in Southeast Asia and Southern Africa, where World Vision already has a long-term presence and manages hundreds of community and school development programs.<\/p>\n<p>World Vision already reaches one new person with clean water every 10 seconds. And we announced a new commitment in September 2015 to provide clean water to everyone, everywhere we work by 2030.<\/p>\n<p>Stephen Sobhani, international vice president of Sesame Workshop, explains, &ldquo;Our work with World Vision surrounding sanitation and hygiene will reach some of the most remote regions of the world &mdash; regions where these resources can be life-saving.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<h2>Learn more about Sesame Street and World Vision<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Read <a title=\"Raya The Muppet Talks About Poop | NPR\" href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/blogs\/goatsandsoda\/2014\/10\/01\/352550880\/raya-the-muppet-talks-about-poop-and-is-proud-of-it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Raya&rsquo;s candid interview with NPR<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Learn more about our <a title=\"Our Impact: Clean Water | World Vision\" href=\"\/our-impact\/clean-water\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">clean water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) programs<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How you can help<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Join us in praying for the water-related issues that prevent children from living life in all its fullness.
