Todays charity is Water.org. Their goal is safe water and the dignity of a toilet for all, in our lifetime. For those of us with two or more working bathrooms and clean water at the turn of a tap this idea is rather foreign.
And yet more than 2.5x more people lack water than live in the US, and there are more people with a mobile than a toilet. These facts astound me when I read them and made me think about all the tasks that I can do every day, and that someone halfway around the globe might take all day just to do one of them.
Water.org partners with each local community and tailors the system to its need. The projects are demand driven, have local leadership, and utilize cost sharing measures. Please consider donating to Water.org today.
