WASH

Water, Sanitation and Hygiene

Helping communities develop convenient sources of pure water not only saves lives, but it also makes people’s lives better. For 773 million people living in our world today, the only water available may be as far as 10 kilometres away from where they live. After the long walk, the water that they do find may be contaminated with toxins or disease-causing agents.

Help Provide Clean Water

From the simple acts of drinking and cleaning to irrigating crops and providing water for livestock, a fresh water source is vital for life. ADRA is partnering with communities to improve water supplies, build sanitation facilities, and offer training on proper sanitation and hygiene so that all may live with dignity.
