UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places, to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential.
Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone. And we never give up.
WaterAid is an international non-profit with one goal: to change the world through water. Along with decent toilets and good hygiene, a reliable supply of clean water is essential for health, dignity and a life full of opportunity. Childbirth is safer, children
get the chance to grow up healthy and strong. Families thrive and whole communities are better prepared for our changing climate and whatever the future holds.
We started out in 1981, when UK water companies created a single organisation dedicated to tackling the global water crisis.
Today we work alongside communities worldwide setting up entire systems that deliver clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene for millions. And we get the people, policies and money in place to keep these systems working – and the water flowing
for good. So that people have safe, reliable services that last.
Our work with communities, partners, allies and supporters has already meant millions of people can shape their own future with
dignity and confidence.
To drive lasting change on a global scale and faster than ever, we get others to step up and play their part:
- Partnering with communities to build systems that work for them.
- Connecting policy makers, experts, local partners and communities.
- Innovating, learning, modelling solutions and sharing good practice.
- Changing attitudes and behaviours.
- Rallying support from people and organisations around the world.
- Working with decision makers to scale up investment and accelerate progress.
Together with our partners and supporters, we are working with determination towards the day when we are no longer needed.
We believe there's a smart way to end the global water crisis. Millions of people around the world could get access to safe water or improved sanitation in their homes with the help of small, affordable loans. That's why we created smart, financial solutions to address the water crisis.
Water.org created a way for families in need to get lasting access to safe water and sanitation through affordable financing, something we call WaterCredit.
With your support, we can help empower people around the world with hope, health, and the opportunity to break the cycle of poverty. Join us at Water.org
