The Water Crisis --- Consider This:

• Combined, unclean water and poor sanitation are the world’s second largest killer of children.

• Water-related illnesses result in a loss of 272 million days of school attendance for children, mostly in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.

• Millions of women spend several hours a day collecting water.

• Close to half of all people in developing countries are suffering at any given time from a health problem caused by dirty water or unsanitary conditions.
