Project Description
CLEAN WATER FOR EVERYONE
Water is the source of life and health. But what if you had to walk several hours each day to fetch water? What if this water would not even be safe to drink and might eventually bring sickness to your family? The human body consists of more than 70% water, it is essential to have access to clean water.
Each year a number of almost a million deaths are attributed to impure water. A high number of people still have no access to a reliable source of water and have to fetch it from surface water, such as ponds and streams.
Sickness due to unsafe water affects the economy of many countries and brings difficulties in many households. Not being able to work leaves the family without the desperately needed income, not being able to go to school affects the physical and mental development of kids. Therefore impure water has an impact on the economy and the development of the country. Access to pure water gives people the chance to overcome poverty and changes lives forever.
Funding inventions to purify water is one of our top priorities. We like to take on the challenge and find a way to bring purified water to every household on earth. Starting by building wells in rural areas over to funding resources to build water treatment plants, a high number of people can profit from the access to clean water.
Water is not a privilege, it’s a human right.
