Funds in Water

Water is one of the essential commodities to human life and not accessible to 65% of the people in Africa. Inadequate access to clean water has led to high prevalence of waterborne diseases within communities. This project’s implementation will significantly improve health outcomes by enhancing sanitation practices and reducing the incidence of waterborne illnesses. This project will establish clean water wells near reliable water sources and pump the water to storage tanks strategically located above the villages. Gravity fed water will then be distributed to several key locations within the villages to be accessed by the entire community. A reliable source of water will promote better health, which is turn enables children to attend school, parents to have enough time and energy to work at home, in the garden, or at the store, allowing families to grow.

Access to clean water is a fundamental human right, but unfortunately, many people worldwide still lack access to it. This is where we must come in to provide sustainable clean water solutions to needy communities. This project includes building wells, rainwater harvesting systems, and bio-sand filters. Providing access to clean water improves health, reduces the spread of waterborne illnesses, and frees up time for children and women traditionally responsible for collecting water. Your donations help fund this project and ensure more communities can access clean water. By donating, you can help make a difference in the lives of those who desperately need it. Every little bit helps, and with your commitment to sustainability, we will have a long-lasting impact. Make your voice heard to help.

Seventy-one million people lack access to clean water. That’s 1 in 10 people on the planet. Women and girls spend an estimated 200 million hours carrying water every day. The average woman in rural Africa walks 6 kilometers (about 3.7 miles) daily to haul 40 pounds of water. Providing clean water, sanitation, and hygiene is a crucial aspect of ensuring the well-being and development of communities worldwide. Access to clean water is a fundamental human right, yet millions still lack access to safe drinking water sources. You can help families in need get access to clean water as a supporter of World Vision. We aim to establish lasting access to clean water for 10 million people. The future is even more ambitious — but achievable with your help

Kinship has been mentoring students at Alliance High School, an alternative school in Portland, on the Design Thinking process. The students and staff at this school do not have access to trusted, safe, lead-free drinking water and have identified this as the problem they want to solve through Design Thinking. Kinship would like to support their fundraising efforts to find solutions to this problem and deliver safe drinking water, a basic human right, to this community.

World Water Day, observed on March 22 of each year, raises awareness of the global water and sanitation crisis. Millions of people around the world go without access to safe and clean water sources each day, and several organizations are working tirelessly to make a change. You can make a difference by being more mindful of your own water consumption, doing your part to keep your local water sources clean, participating in local cleanup efforts, and donating to organizations who are doing the critical work to improve clean water access and sanitation procedures.

Access to safe water, sanitation and hygiene is the most basic human need for health and well-being. Billions of people will lack access to these basic services in 2030 unless progress quadruples. Demand for water is rising owing to rapid population growth, urbanization and increasing water needs from agriculture, industry, and energy sectors. Decades of misuse, poor management, overextraction of groundwater and contamination of freshwater supplies have exacerbated water stress. In addition, countries are facing growing challenges linked to degraded water-related ecosystems, water scarcity caused by climate change, underinvestment in water and sanitation and insufficient cooperation on transboundary waters. To reach universal access to drinking water, sanitation and hygiene by 2030, the current rates of progress would need to increase fourfold. Achieving these targets would save 829,000 people annually, who die from diseases directly attributable to unsafe water, inadequate sanitation and poor hygiene practices. Yet 2.2 billion people worldwide suffer from thirst or fall ill from contaminated water. Our mission is to provide these people with an existential livelihood through clean drinking water.

Jackson, Mississippi, Is Facing an Emergency Water Shortage. The immediate cause of the current water shortage are the floods that began to overwhelm the Pearl River weeks ago . These floods caused issues at local water-treatment plants, essentially shutting them down. After several days without water, the National Guard was deployed last week and lines for water at emergency distribution centers formed around the capital city. We have created this fund to help those in Jackson stay safe and healthy during this crisis.SOLIDARIEDADE NA MOKILI, a 501 (C) (3) nonprofit organization. Your contribution is tax-deductible.

Heavy rains leading to the flooding of the Pearl River has resulted in the flooding of the O.B. Curtis Water Plant in Jackson, Mississippi. As a result, the water in Jackson and surrounding communities is now considered unsafe for consumption, leaving nearly 200,000 residents without drinking water. Additionally, damage to the water treatment plant has decreased water pressure significantly, leaving many residents without the ability to prepare meals, take showers and flush toilets. The following organizations are accepting monetary donations to aid in purchasing, transporting and distributing drinking water; implementing mobile shower and hygiene units; and ensuring those impacted are able to access additional resources as needed.

World Oceans Day, recognized annually on June 8, was established by the United Nations to both celebrate the beauty and mystery of the ocean, as well as to promote public interest in protecting, preserving, and sustainably managing its resources. The ocean covers 70% of the planet and produces at least half of the available oxygen; it is home to the vast majority of earth’s biodiversity, is a major source of food for billions around the world, and is a key driver of global economies. However, 90% of big fish populations are depleted, more than 50% of coral reefs are destroyed, and we are taking more from the ocean than can be replenished. Through a single donation to the Fund, you can support multiple organizations' initiatives working to protect our oceans and the life within them. Join us is supporting organizations that help significantly reduce marine pollution, protect marine and coastal ecosystems, and work towards the conservation and sustainable use of the sea.

Help bring back life to people at Boraie village, Rajasthan, India by supporting this project. Water scarcity has taken a huge toll on villages. In absence of water people face hardships. Many women walk miles daily to fetch water for daily use. Many farmers struggle with farming. Families are forced to pick up alternative livelihoods in nearby cities. Villages are abandoned. Boraie is such a village. Project Oasis is focused on developing self-sustained water resources for water desperate villages in India. By identifying strategic locations with scientific research and local expertise, check dams are built for the villages to ensure year-round availability of water sourced by rainwater harvesting techniques. Reviving Boraie is part of Project Oasis. Boraie is evaluated as a high impact site, where by building a checked dam farmers can have access to water supply throughout the year. A checked dam harvests/preserves rainwater during monsoon, then let it flow away. This collected water goes underground replenishing all wells in the area. In good monsoon the dam will hold 4,03,571 cft = 1,13,00,000 crore litres of water. Each village is unique. At Boraie the planned checked dam is named Aatamni Khalli . This campaign targets funding of $6000 for the purpose of this dam. With checked dam built, following impact is expected at Boraie: --145 families, totaling 1160 people will get access to water throughout the year. --320 migrant/displaced workers will reverse migrate to the village to pick up farming again. --529 Acres of new irrigable land will be generated. --290 new employment opportunities will be generated.

THE CHALLENGE: Sierra Leone is currently off track on meeting the target of halving the percentage of the population without sustainable access to safe drinking water and adequate sanitation. Only 57% of the country's population have access to safe drinking water. 30% of all schools are without running water and 14% of all under 5 child deaths are due to diarrhea and other water related illnesses. Women and girls are particularly affected spending time and energy on water collection on daily basis. OUR SOLUTION AID, through its EMAS Technology adopted a low-cost self water supply concept, providing technical WASH facility implementation as well as training for local WASH technicians. The promoted low-cost Water Self-Supply technologies in Sierra Leone include a wide range of low-cost options such as hand drilled wells, rain water harvesting systems, household water. The presented water self-supply approach follows a do-it-yourself and an added value principal. LONG-TERM IMPACT: AID, through the use of Emmas Technology has been able to construct over 800 wells in various communities in rural areas in Sierra Leone. With the great impacts our intervention is making in addressing the growing water concerns of poor people, we are committed to reaching more communities as clearly articulated in our 2020 vision to reach up to 2,000 communities. AID is also very determined to also implement the Emmas Technological approach to other parts of Africa.

Objetivo: US$4,250 Atiende a 25 alumnos de preescolar a tercero y a 17 niños entre 0 y 5 años sin servicios de agua, saneamiento e higiene. ¿Qué queremos hacer? Con el apoyo de Cisco Colombia queremos asegurar que los niños y niñas tengan acceso a los servicios más básicos que les permita tener un espacio donde estudiar y ser cuidados que sea seguro y digno. Para esto nos proponemos:  Conectar la escuela y al jardín infantil comunitario al servicio de agua e instalar filtros para asegurar su calidad  Construir baños adecuados al contexto  Rehabilitar la cocina y comedor para que los niños y niñas consuman alimentos preparados con mejor higiene  Implementamos una campaña de higiene basada en juegos y diversión para adoptar buenos hábitos como el lavado de manos, la higiene personal, el uso del baño y el cuidado del agua. ¿Cuál es la meta? Recaudar en total $30.000.000 COP para el mejoramiento de los servicios e implementación de la campaña en Santa Cruz. Para cumplir este objetivo solicitamos la donación de US$4,250 entre Diciembre de 2019 y Febrero 2020 por parte de los empleados de Cisco que a través del Programa matching Gifts nos permitirá alcanzar la meta propuesta. Al finalizar el proceso (segundo trimestre de 2020) invitamos al equipo de Cisco Colombia a una visita a la Escuela de Santa Cruz para apoyar a WaterAid a dar los toques finales para finalizar la intervención en la escuela! PROYECTO GUAJIRA 2020 School and Nursery Santa Cruz, La Guajira. Colombia. Goal: $4,250 WaterAid is determined to make clean water, reliable toilets and good hygiene available for boys and girls. Our Healthy Beginnings Campaign seeks to improve health and nutrition for over 750 boys and girls with the availability of clean safe water and proper hygiene. We need all the support from the Cisco team to help us reach our goal! With your help we will be supporting the school Santa Cruz, which serves over 42 Children, located in the La Guajira (Colombia’s most northerly region: a vast and wild desert on the Caribbean coast bordering Venezuela). Today there is no water directly being supplied to the school. The students and teachers have to carry water in buckets from a central location and they relieve themselves in the areas surrounding the community. This tough situation creates a health hazard while being a huge burden as well. The total cost of this project is $8,500 USD. The challenge for this campaign is to raise $4,250 USD between December 2019 and February 2020, while taking advantage of the Cisco match to achieve the ultimate goal of $8,500 USD. WaterAid will be supporting this project all along and this venture will conclude with an actual visit to the project in La Guajira, where we will engage with the community who is benefiting from this campaign. The kids in Santa Cruz and WaterAid thank you in advanced for your support!
