FACTS:
Lack of clean water in 3rd world countries is a serious issue, the water they are forced to drink carries disease and death.
The people drinking this can get really sick or even die from drinking too much of this dirty water.

783 million people worldwide do not have access to clean and safe water also 37% of that population are from African heritage or live in the Middle East.
The population of Africa collectively walks 40 billions hours every year to gather clean water.

Twice the population of the United States of America do not have access to safe water and are forced to drink dirty water to keep them hydrated, approximately 663 million people.
The people that live without clean water are not just African or from 3rd world countries like you may think, every community has people that cannot afford suitable drinking water.

Here is some easy ways that could help the issue:
- Raise awareness for the issue
- Donate money to charity so they can buy and deliver them water
- Support the cause so it is easier for charity's to do their job.

Some possible solutions:
Have wealthier countries deliver or build water tanks for the villages that do not have enough of a clean water supply.
Get a lot more people to raise awareness and donate money so water can be bought and delivered.

Our idea: To get wealthier countries to provide poor African villages with big steel water tanks so they can catch the rain, turn into healthy drinking water and use a water purifier that will also be supplied by wealthier countries so they are able to have a steady supply of drinking water.
