As Matt explains, ‘Over 4,000 children in the developing world die from water-related diseases every day.
After visiting project sites in Africa and Asia, I’ve seen the problem and the impact of safe water and in this
day and age it’s totally unnecessary that people die from a lack of clean water.’
Twenty-one-year-old Moina is one of the many thousands of people that Water.org has been helping over
the years. Working as a housemaid, she lives in Board Guard slum in Dhaka, Bangladesh, with her
husband and eight-month-old daughter, along with four million other people. Her husband is a rickshaw
puller. As the slum has no access to safe water, Moina has to get her family’s drinking water from
a public source about a mile away. They have to pay $1.45 a month to use it. It’s not unusual for the water
to run out before everyone in the queue has been able to fill their pots. She collects water twice
a day and each trip takes her from one to two hours.
Moina uses a nearby pond for all other daily water needs, like bathing and washing clothes. The pond is
contaminated by human and animal waste, as well as pollution. There are no sanitary toilets in Board
Guard, only ‘hanging latrines’, which are basically sheets of cloth hung on bamboo poles for privacy.
