Improve access to safe drinking water
- Safe drinking water:Not everyone can walk into their house, go to the sink and turn on water. Some people need to go and get water from a well. In some places, this water can be contaminated with harmful bacteria. ( Read more for more info.)
Okay, come on lets gets to the Basic's...
- Water is so healthy for us but, we need to know where it comes from and why it gets cleaned...
- Water that you drink comes from the United States, streams, ponds, rivers, waterfalls etc...
- Before you drink it has been cleaned, treated, and most importantly tested.
