Women are disproportionately affected by the water crisis, as they are often responsible for collecting water. This takes time away from work, school and caring for their family. Lack of water and sanitation lock women in a cycle of poverty.
Empowering women is critical to solving the water crisis. When women have access to safe water, they can pursue skills outside of their traditional roles and experience greater autonomy and independence.
Every $60 I raise gives one family access to safe water, empowering women to define their own future. Founded by Gary White and Matt Damon, Water.org is a non-profit organization that has been pioneering market-driven financial solutions to the global water crisis for more than 25 years, giving women hope, children health and communities a future.
If we can raise $10,000 through your donations, I will match that $10,000 to make it a total of $20,000 for Water.org
