Hello, My name is Delaney. I am 7 years old. I saw a video of children drinking dirty water out of a muddy stream where animals were standing and drinking. It's not fair that children have to drink dirty water! My Nana says life is not fair but it causes us to be thankful and want to do something to help.
Every 21 seconds, a child dies from a water-related disease, and diarrhea remains the second leading cause of death of children under the age of five worldwide. The problem is enormous but solutions are available. Kids with access to safe water are healthier and can attend school regularly.
For every $25 that I raise, Water.org can give someone access to safe water for life. Co-founded by Matt Damon and Gary White, Water.org has been helping people develop sustainable solutions for more than 20 years. Together, we can change lives with safe water.
Thank you for anything you can do to help.
Delaney
