Can you imagine having to walk more than half an hour to your closest water source? It is a daily reality for millions, but it doesn't have to be.
703 million people in the world – almost one in ten – do not have clean water close to home. Every day, women and children walk long distances to collect and carry water for their families. Girls and boys often begin collecting water as children and girls continue to collect and carry water throughout their lives. Many girls spend hours each day collecting water, which can cause them to miss time at school. And not only that, sometimes the water they are forced to collect is dirty, carrying water borne diseases and leading to sickness in their community.
WaterAid enable communities around the world to access clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene, allowing them to unlock their potential.
This week I'll be taking part in WaterAid's Walk for Water by walking at least an hour a day to raise funds so people around the world can access clean water for the first time.
If you are able to, please donate to my fundraising page to contribute to WaterAid's amazing work. It can be as little as $5. Every bit counts.
Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot!
