Clean water changes everything
In communities without access to clean water, women and girls spend hours everyday collecting dirty water. Not only does the walk for water keep children out of school and prevent women from earning an income, the water often carries diseases that make everyone sick.
When a community gets access to clean water, women and girls get their lives back. They start businesses, improve their homes, and take charge of their own futures.

Impact in progress

More work is underway in Bangladesh, Kenya, and Uganda. Hang tight — it takes about 21 months to build, implement, and then fully report back on a water project. Learn more.
