that’s how often a child under five dies somewhere in the world
Water is life—and yet every day, millions wake up without it. Imagine waking before dawn to walk miles for a single pot of water, only to find the well dry or the water tainted. This is reality for families across the globe:
3.2 billion people lack safe water close to home, forcing women and children into long, exhausting journeys.
Every day, over 1,000 children under five lose their lives to diseases that could have been prevented with clean water and basic sanitation.
In crisis zones like Gaza, entire communities survive on just 3–5 L per person per day—far below the 15 L minimum recommended for drinking, cooking and hygiene.
But there is hope—and you can make it real.
How Your Gift Saves Lives
£120 – Hand-Pump Installation
A simple, durable hand-pump brings fresh groundwater to the surface for a village of 300 people. No more dawn treks, no more exposed water sources. With safe water at their doorstep, women and girls reclaim hours each day—to learn, earn, and build healthier futures.
£500 – Emergency Water Tank
When conflict or disaster strikes, pipelines fail and wells run dry. Your gift funds tanker-to-tap delivery in hotspots like Gaza, reaching thousands of families who would otherwise go thirsty. In these critical moments, every drop you provide is a lifeline.
£600 – Community Borehole
Deep drilling taps hidden aquifers, supplying year-round water to 1,000 people—even in the toughest dry seasons. Schools stay open, crops thrive, and local entrepreneurs can start small businesses, all fueled by reliable access to this most precious resource.
Beyond the Drop
Your support does more than quench thirst. It ignites opportunity:
Education: Girls spend their days in classrooms rather than at the water source.
Economy: Farmers irrigate small plots, raising crops that feed families and seed local markets.
Health: Clinics install hand-washing stations, reducing infections and keeping mothers and newborns safe.
