In much of the world, water is women’s work.
Where people don’t have access to clean water at home, the responsibility of collecting it falls overwhelmingly on women and girls.
For many, that journey isn’t safe.
Women who collect water for their families face the risk of:
• Violence, harassment, and sexual assault
• Loss of education and income
But the dangers don’t end there. Without access to safe water, women and girls also face:
• Water-borne illnesses
• Infection and disease during pregnancy and childbirth
• The inability to manage their periods safely and with dignity.
Safe water doesn’t just protect health. It protects women’s safety, opportunity, and dignity.
Your support today can help CARE provide it.
