Water & Sanitation

ADRA develops clean water systems throughout the world by providing filters that clean contaminated water; digging wells and installing water pipes where water is available yet inaccessible; giving immediate water to individuals whose water systems have been destroyed by natural or man-made emergencies; and supporting reforestation efforts that improve water supplies and the environment as a whole.

Women and girls are freed from the daily burden and dangers of walking long miles multiple times a day to find water for their families. With water, families grow nutritious fruits and vegetables, thus improving their health.
