We believe water is the best investment the world can make to improve health, empower women, enable access to education, increase family income and change lives. Yet, 771 million people lack access to safe water.
We’re working to change this. Water.org is a global nonprofit organization working to bring water and sanitation to the world.

For millions around the world, access to funds stands between them and safe water and sanitation in their homes.

Our solutions are working! Today more than 58 million people around the world can turn on a tap or safely use a toilet because small, affordable loans empowered them to get access to safe water and sanitation at home.
