WATER IN SYRIA

More than 13 million people in Syria are in urgent need of humanitarian assistance according to the United Nations.  Millions of Syrians do not have any access to clean, healthy drinking water.

WATER IN PALESTINE

Our Water  Appeal is a Palestinian based charity providing clean fresh water with Gaza.

The problem

• In Gaza, 97% of water is undrinkable.
• Shortages are widespread since more than 1 million people living in Gaza rely on just one aquifer to provide all their water needs.
• Quite apart from being a scarce natural resource, the available water is frequently contaminated by sewage and pesticides.
• Over 12% of child deaths are attributed to drinking contaminated water
• Waterborne diseases such as diarrhea, typhoid and gastroenteritis are common
  
  

Help provide a solution.

No one should have to worry about whether the water they drink will make them ill.  Nor should they live without access to a good supply of clean water.

With your help, we have been able to create two water purification plants in Gaza. Each plant is capable of providing up to 70,000 litres of fresh water daily.

Just £25 donated to our water appeal can make a difference, providing safe, clean water to a local community.

£85 can provide 700,00 litres of fresh, clean water for one day.

Please help us to continue helping the people of Gaza gain access to fresh, clean water every day, by donating £25 a month to this Water appeal.
