Charity

The water and sanitation problem in the developing world has continued to escalate, affecting more and more people each year. Hundreds of millions of individuals currently lack access to clean water. This lack of water leads to lack of sanitation, inadequate hygiene, and disease, killing over 842,000 people every year globally, or approximately 2,300 people per day. Please check out my water.org website page. With every $25 raised, we can help someone gain access to clean water for life!
