March for Water 2024
Today, 703 million people lack access to clean water. In 7 out of 10 households that lack access to water, girls and women are responsible for fetching water for the family.
Fetching water can take several hours a day. This means that many women have no time to work and many girls are forced to drop out of school. This leads to a greater risk of falling into long-term poverty.
To highlight everyone's right to clean water, WaterAid runs the March for Water campaign every year in March, highlighting the impact of the water crisis on girls and women around the world.
Ask friends and family to sponsor the steps you take in March by downloading the app and starting a fundraiser. Your gifts will make a big difference: for example, 71 SEK can pay for a tap - a tap that can make a difference in a community that lacks clean water.
Good luck and thank you for your commitment! With your support, we can reach more people in the world with clean water, contributing to a more equal world where girls have time to go to school and women can work.
