Campaign for Clean Drinking Water - World Water Day 2024

Did you know that Friday, March 22 is World Water Day?

World Water Day is a United Nations observance day that raises awareness around the global water crisis. According to the World Health Organization, 1 in 4 people around the world do not have safe access to drinking water.

In response to such an urgent global need, from today until March 22nd, we invite you to join us as we highlight and fundraise for HOPE worldwide's programs that provide fresh drinking water around the world.

HOPE worldwide supplies clean drinking water by water filters in communities around the world including the Philippines, Ukraine, Nepal, Indonesia, Papa New Guinea, Honduras, El Salvador, and Zambia. These filters allow people (primarily women and children) to spend more time in school and pursuing their careers, rather than walking miles to draw water from wells that are often contaminated.

Additionally, the HOPEww Disaster Response team provides water filters when communities have had clean water sources damaged by a natural disaster. These filters contribute to the resilience of communities by reducing waterborne diseases as they rebuild and recover after a disaster.

Last year, our amazing global community helped to fundraise for and distribute 2,400 water filters, resulting in tens of thousands of people having access to clean drinkable water. Partner with us again in our efforts to make clean water accessible by donating toward our goal of $25,000 this month. Your gift to supply clean drinking water does more than quench thirst, it changes the economic trajectory of families and communities.
