Why does saving matter?
In many parts of the world inadequate sanitation is a huge problem. Billions of people without access to sufficient clean water are exposed to the risk of cholera, typhoid and other such diseases. These people desperately need access to fresh, clean water. Globally, fresh water is a scarce resource that needs to be distributed to everyone who needs it. In many parts of the world access to fresh water can literally mean the difference between life and death. It’s estimated that over 3.5 million people per year die from water-related diseases. Not surprising when you consider that only 54% of the world’s population have clean water piped into their homes.
