Two boreholes in Ghana

WATERGhana

Empower families with clean water close to home. Your practical gift will improve the well-being of two communities in the Savannah Region of Ghana.

Improve health: Safe water prevents deadly diseases; annually, 1 million people die from diarrhoea due to poor sanitation.**

Enhance hygiene: In 2022, 2.2 billion people lacked safe drinking water, 2 billion people lacked handwashing facilities.***

Transform communities: Women and girls burdened with collecting water miss out on education and a chance to work.

* Good development work means responding to the changing needs of children and families around the world. If, at the time of ordering, there isn't a need for any chosen gifts, the funds will go towards a comparable, more urgent initiative.
