Problem Statement
In the world today, there is a clear lack of fresh drinking water for many people. Every one in five deaths of children under the age of five is related to an issue regarding safe drinking water. One of the countries that has suffered the worst of this epidemic is Africa. According to the Water Project Organization, good health begins with access to fresh drinking water. This issue is very severe. It leads to many deaths of people and it causes a chain reaction. When a student gets a waterborne illness, they can’t go to school or learn. Then, someone needs to take care of the sick person so they can’t work. Also, they may need medicine and treatment which takes away money that can be used towards food, building wells, and more. I propose to encourage people to donate to building wells and helping developing countries such as Africa have access to fresh water by contributing money or time towards foundations such as The Water Project. If everyone takes a stand this problem can be conquered.
ProposalI propose to encourage everyone to donate to foundations such as THE WATER PROJECT. Foundations like this use their profits to take initiative and build wells in developing countries so that everyone can have access to clean water. The people in these countries greatly appreciate this, because they are being given access to clean, fresh water without having to make a trek.
If we All Take A Stand....
