cholera, dysentery, typhoid, and
hepatitis A) linked to poor sanitation,
poor hygiene and contaminated water.

884 million people in the world do not
have access to safe water. This is
roughly one in eight of the world's
population.
The average weight of water that women
in Africa carry on their heads is commonly
20 kg, the same as airport luggage

90% of the deaths due to diarrhoeal
diseases are children under 5 years old,
mostly in developing countries.

Diarrhoea is the second leading cause of
death among children under five in the

GIVE LIFE
Clean accessible drinking water is a basic
human right, essential to life; yet over one
eighth of the world does not have access
to safe drinking water. Instead, it is a luxury
in many parts of East Africa. Many people
suffer sickness and death due to water
borne diseases and valuable hours are lost
fetching dirty water over long distances.
Indeed, for Fields of Life, there is great
concern for the available supply of clean
water especially amongst the vulnerable
and marginalised groups, mainly women
and children.
CHANGING LIVES
Your donation, big or small will change the
lives of a community in East Africa.
BUILDING HOPE
Access to clean water can:
• Limit water related and infectious diseases.
• Help reduce infant mortality.
• Allow girls to go to school for the first time.
Women and young girls walk on average 3.5
miles to collect water and may have to do
this journey numerous times a day.
TRANSFORMING COMMUNITIES
Access to clean water will help with the
development and growth of communities.
Having a water source close to home rather
than miles away allows for more productive
communities and healthier families.
Water is fundamental for health and survival,
especially for younger children.
