ABOUT CHARITY: WATER
Charity: Water is a non-profit organization bringing clean and safe drinking water to people in developing nations.
Charity: Water uses the 100% model; a bold promise to the general public — 100% of their donations would go directly to the field to fund water projects while private donors, foundations and sponsors cover everything from staff salaries to basic office systems to office rent and supplies. That means 100% of your donation goes directly to the people that need it rather than daily operations of the non-profit.
WHY WATER?
In Africa alone, people spend 40 billion hours every year just walking for water. Women and children usually bear the burden of water collection, walking miles to the nearest source, which is unprotected and likely to make them sick.
Time spent walking and resulting diseases keep them from school, work and taking care of their families. Along their long walk, they're subjected to a greater risk of harassment and sexual assault. Hauling cans of water for long distances takes a toll on the spine and many women experience back pain early in life. With safe water nearby, women are free to pursue new opportunities and improve their families’ lives. Kids can earn their education and build the future of their communities.
A clean water project nearby means more than safe drinking water to women and children in developing nations; it means time, freedom and incentive to change their communities.
