About WASH

According to the World Health Organization, more than 3.4 million people die each year from water, sanitation, and hygiene-related causes. Nearly all deaths, 99 percent, occur in the developing world.  The lack of clean potable water causes countless gastro-intestinal sicknesses (Cholera, Dysentery, Acute Diarrhoeal Illness, etc), which afflicts mostly children. Water and Sanitation Health works to combat this problem.

Guatemala

Water and Sanitation Health is working to provide clean drinking water to communities in Guatemala.  The communities represent 750 families, an estimated 4,500 people, and suffer from flooding, water pollution and, during the dry season, a lack of water in the municipality of Ocós.
