How your support helps
Clean Water
Providing access to clean drinking water has the potential to help 800 million people on the planet.
Solutions as direct as building water wells and providing water treatment tools help women and
children save time, reduce risk of harassment and sexual assaults, and have a direct impact on
economic development.
Sanitation
Improved sanitation facilities are estimated to result in an average reduction in cases of diarrhea of
more than 33%. The nonprofits in this fund engage in building latrines, setting up handwashing
stations, and community involvement to ensure execution as well as ongoing maintenance.
Infrastructure, Governments, Policy
Newly built wells and safely constructed facilities could be lost in just a few short years if countries
are unable to maintain infrastructure investments. Working with local, regional and national
governments to sustain these facilities is therefore a critical component of maintaining sustainable
water solutions.

Hygiene
Unsafe hygiene practices, like not washing hands with soap, strongly affect the mortality rates of
infants and children in developing countries. Practices for hygiene require education and behavior
change in addition to supplies. The select nonprofits in this fund tirelessly work to improve hygiene.
