We can all help, by telling people. SPEAKING UP! Everyone has a voice. Let it be heard, we can all be good people and do something about this, lets change the future and make this world brighter and bigger. Everyone has the ability to help. I raised money, by asking everyone in my family if they'd like to donate, when they asked for what I told them about what was happening and none of them were aware about this. They all donated a quarter. When I found out about the lack of clean water, I was honestly upset. I wasn't aware of anything of this. I want to do something and I am going to do something about this situation. Here we take water for granted and in other countries they have no access to it.
Many things can happen to your body when you don't have access to clean water. Your whole body can malfunction when dirty water is consumed. Many diseases are water born. Pesticides are consumed and take over your body killing you. I have not personally seen or experienced a lack of water. Well like I said, my family wasn't aware. In my personal opinion, I think that this will help, maybe not a lot of people, but every cent makes a difference and that is extremely powerful. |
The Thirst Project, is an organization that helps places all around the world get clean water. They are a non-profit organization, and many famous actors are supporters. The Thirst Project all started with one single photograph, and with that one photo a whole story unfolded. In many different places in Africa there is extreme poverty, but no one was really aware of the water crisis. The organization was born in 2007, when Seth Maxwell was shown the photograph of the issue and decided to do something about it. They're trying to solve the problem, which is water. But, the solution is water. The thing they're trying to do is build wells to give an entire community clean water. It costs from $7,500 in Uganda to $20,000 in Kenya. The countries being helped by this organization is Africa and different parts of the world.
