Safe water and the dignity of a toilet for all.

Imagine if you had to walk miles for a glass of water. Collectively, women and children spend 125 million hours every day walking and collecting water for domestic use. Reductions in time spent collecting water have been found to increase school attendance.

Every 90 seconds a child dies from a water-related disease, and 1 in 3 people lack access to a toilet. Diarrhea remains one of the leading causes of death for children under the age of five worldwide.

Every $1 invested in water and sanitation provides a $4 economic return, and your gift will be matched in the month of October, doubling your reach! $125, matched this month, can provide safe, clean water for ten people for life.

Thank you for checking this cause out and for the birthday wishes!
