Imagine missing school, not because you don’t want to learn - but because there’s no safe water.

For millions of girls around the world, this is a daily reality. Without access to safe water and sanitation, they face health risks, safety concerns, and limited opportunities for the future.

This , we are committed to working with government and partners to expand water, sanitation and hygiene services that prioritize the needs of girls and women—so every girl can learn, grow, and thrive.
