• There are nearly 1 billion people in the world that don’t have clean, safe water.
• The women and children that collect water spend approximately 40 billion hours getting it.
• This detracts from their ability to do other work, or get an education.
• It takes $20 to supply one of these people with a clean water supply.
• Each dollar spent provides an economic return of $12.
• Not least because of the drop in medical care and infant mortality.
• Can you spare a single dollar for this campaign to bring clean water to 50,000 people?
• That’s less than a third of the price of a cup of coffee.
• All money goes to providing water not to admin costs or profit.
Yes, providing clean water to those without it is one of the most basic and simple things we can do to improve world health. Taking a lovely vacation in the Old World with it’s pristine, beautiful water is a great way to avoid feelings of guilt and the need to help that a third world vacation might have afforded.
Fantastic water photo 🙂
