You may already know that clean water is scarce in many parts of the world. But did you know that every eight seconds a child dies from problems caused by drinking water that is contaminated and unsafe? Vision Everyone Everywhere Water in Need works for water and sanitation for the people who don’t have access to the water. Water is a necessity for everyone and yet it remains a luxury to many people around the world. Every person needs a sustainable supply of clean water: for drinking, washing, cooking and cleaning. Water in Need is an international nonprofit organization based in Rwanda. The main goal is to bring safe water, sanitation, and hygiene services to everyone, and to make sure those solutions last forever. We are working toward this ambitious goal by partnering with local community members, businesses, and governments, helping them bring sustainable water and sanitation systems to their communities. Then we ensure they have the training and tools they need to maintain those systems for generations. In addition to our main office in Rwanda, we have teams in nine countries: Uganda, Tanzania, DR Congo, Burundi, Kenya, Ethiopia, Sudan and South Sudan. We spend years, not days, in districts — working until every family, clinic, and school has safe, reliable water and sanitation services. Water is in the central of WIN mandate for boys, girls, young and old for all. Water is not only poor hygiene, open defecation, and lack of access to safe water and sanitation systems leading causes of child mortality and morbidity, they contribute to undernutrition and stunting, and act as barriers to education for girls and to economic opportunity for the poor.
