Clean Water

Clean water and safe sanitation are crucial for a child's healthy development. That is why Compassion is committed to building wells, latrines, and sanitary facilities in Child Development Centers and local communities.
The reality...
2.2 billion people lack access to safe drinking water.
494 million people still use inadequate sanitation facilities or practice open defecation.
Just CHF 30.– is enough to provide a child with access to a safe toilet.
With your help we can...
Build wells and water tanks that give children, their families, and entire communities vital access to clean water.
Construct safe toilet facilities so that children—especially girls—have access to protected and dignified sanitation.
Keep children in class, as they no longer have to spend hours walking to fetch water.
