WorldWaterWorks & The Water Survival Box
World Water Works is dedicated to helping people escape the stranglehold of disease and poverty caused by disasters which destroy their homes and possessions and leave them without safe water and sanitation.
June, 2008 - Myanmar (Burma)
Cyclone Nargis - 130 boxes sent to the disaster area - in partnership with Merlin UK
Disasters come in many forms - earthquake; cyclone; flood; refugee displacement - but all share a common factor. The most urgent single problem facing the relief agencies is the provision of a supply of safe drinking-water.
During and in the aftermath of many natural disasters, water-borne diseases from contaminated sources threaten to kill even more victims than the initial disaster.
As well as having a bad odour and taste, contaminated water can contain micro organisms that cause diseases such as cholera, dysentery, typhoid and hepatitis.

In the aftermath of a disaster and for those seeking refuge in crowded relief camps, clean drinking water is the key to survival. More than 1 billion people lack access to safe drinking water worldwide. Dirty drinking water causes roughly 200 deaths per hour of children below the age of 5. |
We ask for your help, in the form of donations. So that we then can distribute more Water-Survival Boxes, to areas of the world, where people are dying through lack of clean drinking water.
Please help us, to help those in the world, without clean drinking water, to survive. With your help we can distribute more Water-Survival Boxes and , save more lives.
