This is the reality of transformative change.
Dear Friend,
Access to safe drinking water and a decent toilet is still out of reach for billions of people.
The reality of this crisis is not the same for everyone. In many communities, women and girls carry the greatest burden – walking for water, missing school, and facing safety risks.
We've seen the reality of transformational change when services are built to last, and when the communities and local leadership are part of shaping them.
I am pleased to share our collective impact this past year. These numbers reflect hundreds of thousands of people's lives changed thanks to our teams, partners, and supporters.
303,534 people
reached with new or improved water services
520,813 people
reached with new or improved sanitation services
24 health clinics
with access to improved water, sanitation, and hygiene
Water For People partners with communities and governments to reach every household, school, and health clinic with water and sanitation services.
When water and sanitation services last, they change what’s possible for people – their health, education, livelihoods, and resilience to climate change.
