2.2 billion people—1 in 10—lack access to safe water. For millions of women, children, and communities, this leads to a multitude of disadvantages. Water.org believes water is the best investment the world can make to improve health, empower women, enable access to education, increase family income and change lives.

Founded by Gary White and Matt Damon, Water.org offers smart solutions that break down the financial barriers between people living in poverty and access to safe water and sanitation. To date, they have empowered more than 70 million people in 4 continents with access to safe water, sanitation, and the hope, health and opportunities they bring.

Water has given so much to us, we were inspired by the idea of giving water to those who need it. Out of so many worthy causes, the impact of clean water and sanitation on the lives of women and children won our hearts. And Water.org, like MERSEA, is also based in Kansas City. Something great is happening here—come join the journey.
