Since 2006, over 1.4 million people have benefited from Drop4Drop clean water projects. Grow Your Stake (GYS) wants to help Drop4Drop achieve its mission to alleviate the world water crisis.

The Issue

663 million people in the world do not have access to safe water. This is roughly one in nine of the world's population

Half of the world’s hospital beds are filled with people suffering from water related diseases (UN)

The water and sanitation crisis claims more lives through disease than any war claims through guns (UN)

Women and children collectively walk 200 million miles a day to collect, often dirty and unsafe, water

1.5 million children die every year due to water related diseases

443 million school days are lost each year due to water related illness (WHO/UNICEF)

The Results - The Difference

For every $1 invested in water and sanitation, there is an economic return of between $3 - $34 (WHO)

The introduction of a clean water source to a community saves thousands of hours every week previously lost to water collection

The time freed up from water collection means women have more time for work and productivity within the community increases

When children no longer have to collect water they can spend more time in education, improving their chances of a brighter future

Hygiene education programmes and practices dramatically improve the health of a community, heavily reducing the amount of water related diseases and deaths

Clean water lays the foundations to a brighter future and creates a happier world
