Assistance for Water Wells

Approximately 1.5 billion people use unhygienic water for drinking purposes. Contaminated water takes the lives of about 1,500 children every day with diseases like cholera, diarrhea, and typhoid. Due to drought, epidemic diseases, and difficulty in accessing water, the number of people who lose their lives every year exceeds 2 million.

Drought, scarcity, poverty, rapid population growth, and pollution are destroying drinkable and clean water sources. Millions of people are exposed to mass diseases every day as they don’t have access to healthy water. Serious and applicable measures must be taken to prevent the decrease of clean water sources. The risks that people face are increasing every day with diminishing water sources. People in many regions of the world, particularly in Africa and Asia, have to walk for miles to meet their daily water needs. They can only fulfill their needs with contaminated and muddy water. As Eko International Aid Organization, we provide hope to people with our water well projects in dry lands.
