The Vital Importance of Clean Water
Water is a fundamental human need. Each person on earth requires at least twenty to fifty liters of clean, safe water a day for drinking, cooking, and simply keeping themselves clean. Polluted water isn’t just dirty—it’s deadly. Some 1.8 million people die every year of diarrheal diseases like cholera. Tens of millions of others are seriously sickened by a host of water-related ailments—many of which are easily preventable.
Impacts of Polluted Water on Health and Society
Clean Water International understands that education suffers when sick children miss school. They understand that economic opportunities are routinely lost to the impacts of rampant illness and the time-consuming processes of acquiring water where it is not readily available. Children and women bear the brunt of these burdens. Water is essential for hydration and food production—but sanitation is an equally essential and complimentary use of water. A lack of proper sanitation services breeds disease and can also rob people of their basic human dignity.
Clean Water International’s Decade of Impact

In pursuit of their vision of seeing a world where children can reach their potential because they have access to basic water, sanitation, and hygiene, they are scaling impact. As implied, for transformation to happen, they believe that certain conditions need to be in place: active communities, strong leadership, equality, focus on sustainability, and partnerships between development sectors.
