I am Deepa Dhillon, Miss Illinois International 2021. As founder of "World For Water," I am dedicated to raising awareness about the global water crisis and educating individuals on how we can make a difference together. Please join me in helping to raise funds for Water.org so that this incredible organization can continue to provide clean water and sanitation to communities all over the world who need it the most.

Water connects every aspect of life. Access to safe water and sanitation can quickly turn problems into potential – unlocking education, work opportunities, and improved health for women, children and families across the world. Every $25 donated will help provide one family in need with life-changing access to safe water or sanitation.

785 million people — about 1 in 9 — lack access to safe water; 2 billion — about 1 in 3 — lack access to a toilet. Water.org is dedicated to changing this and you can help. Together, we can empower families around the world with access to small, affordable loans to make household water and sanitation solutions a reality.

Water.org is an international nonprofit organization that has positively transformed millions of lives around the world through access to safe water and sanitation. Founded by Gary White and Matt Damon, Water.org pioneers market-driven financial solutions to ensure everyone has access to safe water and sanitation – giving women hope, children health and families a bright future.
