Make water knowledge common knowledge
2 billion people lack access to safe drinking water.
3.5 billion people lack access to safe sanitation.
2 billion people lack access to basic hygiene.
There’s no denying that the world’s safe water crisis is huge. But through the power of your generosity, your gift can transform the lives of millions of people worldwide.
Your compassionate gift today can support critical efforts that will bring us one step closer to a milestone goal of helping 100 million people achieve better water, sanitation and hygiene by 2030.
But even more, it means that lives are changed for now and for future generations—because of you.
Convert your one-time gift into ongoing impact and join our family of heroes with a monthly gift!
Dare to be different
At CAWST we’re both an engineering firm and a charity, which means we like to do things a little differently. We focus on practical tools and training that help communities bring clean water, safe sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) into homes, schools, and clinics, spreading knowledge and creating a ripple effect.
So far, we’ve reached over 50 million people, and we’re aiming for 230 million by 2030. Because when everyone shares water knowledge, it becomes common knowledge.
