447 million children don’t have basic drinking water at their school.

No child should miss out on education because they lack safe water and sanitation. With your donation, Water For People will help bring clean water, well-managed bathrooms, and hygiene education to schools – so kids can stay healthy, focus on learning, and build bright futures.

Thanks to a generous partner, CDM Smith, all donations are matched up to $30,000.

While all currencies are accepted, your donation will be processed in US dollars.

Your donation helps keep kids in school.

Every child deserves a safe and healthy place to learn. But today, 447 million children don’t have access to clean drinking water at school, and 427 million don’t have bathrooms. Almost half of the schools in the world don’t have handwashing facilities with soap and water.

With your support, we’re changing this story by ensuring schools have reliable water, safe sanitation, and hygiene education. With access to these essentials, kids stay healthy, spend more time in class, and build bright futures. Together, we can make sure no child’s education is cut short because of a lack of water or sanitation.
