water facts

Nearly half the world's population has no access to clean water.
2 million people die each year from preventable water related diseases.

One child dies every 15 seconds from these diseases.

A typical South African child has to walk 3km to get fresh water and will have to carry a 25 litre drum of water back home every day.

Fetching water can take up to four hours of a child's day.

hauling water

Water related diseases are the leading cause of death in the world – 6,000 people died from a water related disease every day.

40 billion hours are lost annually to hauling water – woman and girls are the primary water carriers.


Just 1 flush of a toilet in the West uses more water than most Africans
have to use in a day.
