Make water knowledge common knowledge

Because everyone deserves safe water

2 billion people lack access to safe drinking water.
3.5 billion people lack access to safe sanitation.
2 billion people lack access to basic hygiene.

There’s no denying that the world’s safe water crisis is huge. But through the power of your generosity, your gift can transform the lives of millions of people worldwide.  

Your compassionate gift today can support critical efforts that will bring us one step closer to a milestone goal of helping 100 million people achieve better water, sanitation and hygiene by 2030.

But even more, it means that lives are changed for now and for future generations—because of you.

 

A big impact

“CAWST has given us something that no one can take away – the knowledge, and the empowerment to do something meaningful with that knowledge”

Honduras Country Director, Pure Water for the World (CAWST Training Partner)
