ABOUT CLEAN

CLEAN International mobilizes and evaluates innovative, environmentally sustainable solutions for clean water and sanitation through ongoing education, partnerships, and evaluation in order to save and improve lives.

CLEAN works worldwide. Through on-the-ground water and sanitation projects, walks for water, education forums and more, CLEAN educates and engages those who want to help and those in need. Currently, CLEAN is piloting a country-wide initiative for sustainable clean water in Honduras, establishing health centers as distribution centers for sustainable water filters in Guatemala, and mobilizing sustainable clean water to disaster areas.

WHAT IS THE NEED?

Around the world, 1 in 10 people lack access to clean water and 1 in 3 do not have a toilet. Because of these numbers, over 2,000 people die every day due to sicknesses from unclean water and lack of sanitation. Together, we cannot only save lives but we can also change lives.

WHY WATER AND SANITATION?

Beyond health, water and sanitation have a huge impact on educational and economic opportunities worldwide. Women and girls spend an average of 6 hours a day fetching water and the lack of safe sanitation and sanitary products keeps girls out of school. Water and sanitation opens doors and provides opportunities that would otherwise not exist.

WHERE DOES CLEAN WORK?

WHAT IS THE VISION?

CLEAN envisions a world where every person has access to sustainable clean water and sanitation. Thousands of lives are saved and the potential of individuals around the world who are sick or stuck in the endless cycle of fetching water each day have the opportunity to follow their dreams and reach their own potential.

HOW DOES CLEAN WORK?

CLEAN works with local communities to find solutions that are wanted, sustainable and effective. Community leadership committees are formed, sustainable technologies that can be built and implemented locally are identified, measures to protect water and the environment are implemented, and permanent tools for evaluation, assistance and feedback are put into place.

WILL YOU JOIN US?...

These girls, and thousands around the world, are counting on us to keep them in school and off the path of a lifetime of walking for water.
