Mothers shouldn’t have to bring their own water to give birth.
Please prayerfully consider donating to the Global Health Fund today.
Your gift can help provide urgently needed clean water access, handwashing facilities, infection prevention training, and more to health centers. The miracle of birth should be a joyous occasion, but too often in the developing world it can be a threat to life for both mother and baby, carrying a risk of death up to 20 times greater than in the US.
In remote rural areas where World Vision works:
50% of healthcare centers don’t have clean water
5 in 6 healthcare centers don’t have basic handwashing stations
Lack of clean water disproportionately affects women and girls
Want to ensure that an entire clinic gets access to clean water? An investment of $125,000 will bring clean water and sanitation facilities to a rural healthcare facility PLUS train and equip more community health workers. You will receive a report (typically within 12 to 15 months) on a specific healthcare facility that you have helped fund — including photos, GPS coordinates, and the number of people served.
