Water-related illnesses are the leading cause of human sickness and death in the world, taking the lives of about 6,000 people a day—most of whom are children under five.

Provide a sustainable water supply to communities that lack access to safe water and ensure the local people are invested in the project.

East Meets West’s Clean Water and Sanitation Program has built 109 village water systems, providing more than 110,000 rural people with clean water.
