Charity: Water

As Americans we take for granted the luxgeries that we have in comparison to devolving countries. Its hard to think of a world were we would have work and stress about just getting water, especially when it is as easy as just turning a handle. We just get water and go on with our day and don’t think twice about it. We shouldn’t feel guilty for this but it is what it is, and being in the position that we are in means that we can help countries (or some places in the U.S) that don’t have enough water. If you would go on their website you will notice that 1 in 10 people lack access to clean water. This is their mission to change that.

Charity: Water is a non-profit company that works with communities, that doesn’t have access to clean water,  to get them clean water. This problem is huge but solvable. They invest the money they earn to companies with years of experience. They work with community experts to find the best sustainable solution in each place where we work, whether it’s a well, a piped system, a BioSand Filter, or a system for harvesting rainwater.

They are in 28 countries     ( in Africa, Asia, Central and South America) with 37 partners, they helped fund 51,438 bringing 11,151,945 people clean water. These communities are more economically stable now that they have clean water. More kids are in school rather than traveling to get water. Its obvious that this company ahs done a lot to help this problem, but there is still a lot that can be done.
