clean. water. now.
charity: water is a non-profit organization bringing clean and safe drinking water to people in developing nations. 100% of public donations directly fund water projects. Learn more or donate. [www.charitywater.org]
In honor of Earth Day we want to bring clean water to all by supporting Scott Harrison and his non-profit organization www.charitywater.com.
Some staggering statistics:
Unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation cause 80% of diseases and kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war. Children are especially vulnerable, as their bodies aren’t strong enough to fight diarrhea, dysentery and other illnesses.
90% of the 42,000 deaths that occur every week from unsafe water and unhygienic living conditions are to children under five years old. Many of these diseases are preventable. The UN predicts that one tenth of the global disease burden can be prevented simply by improving water supply and sanitation.
We’re fascinated by Scott’s story and support the tremendous work that he’s doing to bring clean water to people all around the world. Get the full story by watching the video below:
